The Seance
A Victorian séance. Live on stage.
Chicago - Wrigleyville - Saturdays - September through October
It's a time machine, we're taking you back to the heyday of the séance.
Sold out. Every show. 2025. You've been warned
What is it?
A 'spook-house' show for the smart set; The Seance is an original stage show that recreates an authentic Victorian-era seance.
We will investigate the history of the seance, tell stories of the participants, and demonstrate the exact techniques used by psychics and mediums who claimed to contact the dead.
Tonight, you will learn exactly how a seance was performed in a theatrical environment.
What is it NOT?
The Seance is not an "actual" seance, nor is it a cheesy ghost tour. We perform actual demonstrations and tell stories based on the real history of seance shows from the early 1900s.
Is it for children?
Oh no. We discuss actual death, volunteers yell curse words when frightened, and we are performing in a theater/nightclub. There will be booze. 21+ and up ONLY! Not recommended for the whole family.
