"The Moonlight Room centers around Sal and Josh, two troubled 16 year
old Manhattanites who find themselves in a hospital waiting room at
1:30 in the morning anxiously awaiting word about their friend
Lightfield, who has overdosed on drugs. The two are soon joined by
Sal's worried mother, depressed that she seems to be losing touch with
her daughter, and Lightfield's enraged father, who blames the
hard-partying Josh for giving his son the drugs that may kill him. As
the night unfolds and Lightfield's condition worsens, the four react to
the grave situation in their own ways: there is a bit of understanding,
a reconciliation of sorts...and for one, a rash decision that may lead
to tragedy," state press notes.
Featured in the cast: Jeffrey Farber, Denise Hungerford, Mara Kassin,
Leo Kin and Matthew Murumba. Scenic Design is by Carl Tallent and
lights and sound are by David Higham.
Tristine Skyler's other works include the screenplay of the 1999 film Getting To Know You with Zach Braff and Chris Noth, and a film
adaptation of Sylvia Plath's The Bell Jar which is currently in
pre-production.
