GHOST IN THE HOUSE
Ballad of a Legend
Written by
Ernie Hudson & Frank Megna
The new play is about the life and times
of the first Heavyweight Boxing
Champion Jack Johnson. It stars Ernie
Hudson and is directed by Frank Megna.
The one-man show covers the racism
and vindictiveness of White America
against a man whose talents went way
beyond the ring. Johnson was a
musician, raconteur, entertainer, horse
jockey, bull fighter, a secret agent
during World War I, an infamous
Lothario and the catalyst for
celebrations, condemnations and
deadly riots from all sides of the racial
divide.

and Joe Spano as Father
Thomas Aquinas.
