Downtown Rep puts on a Masq

Downtown Repertory Theatre, creators of Fangs! and Witch!, summon spirits in their newest interactive theatrical experience, Masq!, set at a masked ball where angry souls of the dead return for vengeance.

Like Downtown Rep’s previous shows, Masq! is structured around a central hub where the entire audience experiences key developments in the story, before splitting up to explore different narrative threads, sometimes featuring one-on-one interactions. The shows tend to emphasize drama spiced with horror, but they have been gradually increasing the latter aspect.

Masq! begins with a run at Heritage Square Museum from August 16 through September 2, then movies to Mountain View Mausoleum from October 4 to November 10. Tickets are $80 plus service fees. Complimentary beverages are included. Comfortable shoes are recommended since you will be following characters around uneven terrain indoors and outdoors.
