Travel back in time to begin unraveling the mystery of just what happened Under The Big Top back in 1928. This intimate immersive experience — for up to two patrons at a time — kicks off a new series from The Speakeasy Society and Two Bit Circus. Performed in repertory by Claire Chapelli and Dasha Kittredge.
Press Release Follows
The award-winning Immersive Theater company, The Speakeasy Society, has teamed up with Two Bit Circus at their downtown amusement park, 634 Mateo St, Los Angeles, to present an intimate immersive theater experience.
Audiences of one or two will peek behind the curtain at Two Bit Circus and interact with 1928 circus performers tied to a disastrous event that occurred on the site of what is now Two Bit Circus! Following a series of mysterious disappearances at the location, Envision Technologies was contracted to stabilize what appeared to be ‘time jumps’ to the circus that occupied the area nearly a century ago. But now, the lead scientist, Dr. Olivia Xanders, has gone missing and she’s left a message asking for your help!
Under the Big Top: Atlas is the first of 4 interwoven narratives with performances for audiences of one or two people at a time. Though each segment is a complete, stand-alone show, by attending all four experiences (and solving optional puzzle content online) an additional fifth piece of content will be unlocked that will conclude a larger narrative. The performances can be viewed in any order.
Content Advisory: This production features light-to-familiar physical contact from performers and discussion of violence towards animals. This performance is wheelchair accessible, but otherwise requires walking, sitting, and standing.
Suitable for audiences 14 and up.
