Night Fishing

On a chilly autumn night, an old fisherman makes his way to the lake in the dark. He casts a line... and reels in the ghost he's been seeking.

As part of a series by the Berkeley Repertory Theater, they asked 10 writers to think of a place within the city of Berkeley where something meaningful or memorable happened to them and then to write a story inspired by that place. Some stories are fact, some stories are fiction, and some live somewhere in between. Night Fishing is a story of father and son based on Tilden Park Lake, that may or may not exist but where past memories grow present once again.

Narrated by Steven Anthony Jones as the narrator and B.D. Wong as the Old Man.
