A truly original UAFS story, with our national award-winning physical and musical storytelling flair, laid out like a maze for a small audience to discover each night.
Think Escape Room. Think Haunted House. Think Installation Art. It’s not a standard theatre show, where you sit in the seats and watch passively. It’s designed to be touched, traveled through, and figured out as you go. You won’t however, be allowed to carry things through the show (like purses or backpacks), but you can check them at the door.
You can touch all the scenery and props. Expect the actors to talk to you, to touch you, to offer you items, and to help you on your journey. Read a note, turn over a picture on the wall, look under a desk…you never know what you might find. Expect to be moving or standing for large portions of the evening, but there will be a place to rest if needed.

Content Advisories: Themes around violence and abuse.
Attendees should expect to be on their feet and walking much of the time; the show is able to partially accommodate mobility impaired individuals to about 80% of the total area of the site. A few parts of the site are simply too narrow.
