Enter one of our seven decadent rooms, filled with everything for our masked revellers to weather out the end of the world in style. A lavish party needs supplies, entertainers, food, drink, and other merriment to delight our many guests and distract them from the horrors outside the gates...
And that’s where you come in!
Check out our new campaign to fund all seven rooms of 7 Rooms: The Masque of the Red Death.
Announcing the Masqueraders of 7 Rooms
We've united seven local playwrights and seven local directors to construct seven new short plays to fill the unique rooms of the famous manor from Edgar Allan Poe's deliciously macabre short story.
7 Rooms: The Masque of the Red Death will be presented virtually in July 2021. Exact dates and times to be announced.
Meet the Playwrights and Directors!
We're also still seeking podded actors and staff to inhabit the house. Auditions for actors will be held virtually Thursday, April 29.
