A new, immersive theater experience that puts the audience in the middle of the action is happening this weekend

The show, which runs for just this weekend, will be performed “in the round,” meaning the audience will be seated in a circle surrounding the stage.

In addition to the two regular performances, the Sunday matinee will feature a sensory-friendly performance, which will have “decreased sound levels, minimal lighting effects, no sudden bursts of sounds, and ASL interpreters to tell the story in real time.” according to the theater.Artistic director and owner Ernest Sauceda founded the company last year after wanting to find a outlet for artistic expression during the pandemic.

“I just found a need for professional, Broadway-level theater here in town, and I decided to make it happen. I decided why not make something here for professional talent where I can pay people and provide jobs here in town.” Sauceda said.
