The Story

Historian Timothy Brian McKee collected a Renaissance Theatre account from a woman named Leta: during a 1930s matinee, she noticed an anxious young woman in the balcony and later heard intense sobbing behind her. Turning around, she found no one there. Other theatre lore places a figure near the ballroom corridor and projection booth.
