About the Show

Deaths Head Theatrical presents an immersive theater piece set in an illegal 1930s sideshow.

It's 1936. The country is slowly finding itself again following the Great Depression. Once a ubiquitous (and illicit) distraction from life’s hardships, the carnival sideshow has found itself dwindling in popularity. But not everybody can afford to forget the lives of those on the fringes. Professor Mysterium invites you to relive the wonder and spectacle of his old-school curiosities in modern-day Midtown Manhattan. VIP seats include front of the line access, a reserved table for the floor show, and a toast with the Professor himself. Audience members are encouraged to come in 1930s attire. Ages 18 and up.

Funny, Dizzying, Disappointing

See it if U have nothing better to do. Knock off immersive wanna be theater. Jekyll & Hyde tourist rip off strikes again!!

Don't see it if U don't want to see thru high school amateurish immersive theater hopefuls.

Clever, Confusing, Edgy, Thought-provoking, Entertaining

See it if You are OK with not knowing what to expect and can go with the flow. You don't mind being approached/engaged by performers.

Don't see it if You are looking for a traditional or linear narrative with plot and character development.

Almost there, Raunchy, Quirky

See it if you really want to experience immersive theatre, you would like to spend a night in a 1930's speakeasy-type bar.

Don't see it if you want something astoundingly spectacular, you want the show to perform for you rather than you pursuing the story. Read more

Edgy, Intense, Disappointing, Ambitious, Great staging

See it if You love a 1930s settings, free drinks and immersive theatre.

Don't see it if You're looking for a strong plot line, a bit shy as you have to proactively talk to the characters or easily scared. Read more

Definitely not "immersive"

See it if If you are not really looking for an immersive experience.. it's more of a low-budge representation of 1930's burlesque.

Don't see it if If you are looking for more than a passive viewing, semi-amateurish, theater experience. Read more

Quirky, Disappointing

See it if you have an open mind and some time to kill. Also if you like burlesque style acts with a hint of sideshow.

Don't see it if you expect perfection, a clear storyline, and a conclusion that makes sense. Read more

Slow, Unrealized potential, Quirky, Confusing

See it if You are ok with a decent jazz band and some sad burlesque acts.

Don't see it if You expect immersive theatre. The staff often congregated in small groups and gossiped among themselves, rather than interacting w/ patrons. Read more

Ambitious, Slow, Good casting

See it if you enjoy immersive theater that is laid back and allows you ample time to enjoy the main acts and chat with your friends.

Don't see it if you need your immersive theater experience to be gripping and. engaging.
