THURSDAY, OCTOBER 23RD - SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25TH
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 29TH - PAY WHAT YOU CAN/INDUSTRY NIGHT
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 30TH - SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 2ND
Join Edward Saint and Bess Houdini to conduct the tenth and final séance to conjure the spirit of Harry Houdini. They have gathered their peers, friends, enemies, and you at the Knickerbocker Hotel on Halloween night, 1936. An immersive piece centered around the historical event, The Last Séance of Harry Houdini explores themes of love, fame, and grief and the ways each of these can change us. The night unfolds with drinks, mingling, ghosts, and the consequences of disturbing a man’s final rest. Staged within the iconic Flower Hill Center on West 6th, The Last Séance of Harry Houdini will offer a truly immersive experience for those seeking the perfect spectral adventure for an October night. Warning: this production features strobing lights that could affect photosensitive viewers.
