The immersive theatre experience A Midnight Visit has been unleashed on Sydney, Perth and Melbourne since its incarnation in 2018. Tens of thousands of guests have surged into the House of Usher’s labyrinth, emerging exhilarated and changed. For now, the House rests. Will your city be next?
A multi-room, multi-sensory and magnificently macabre experience, A Midnight Visit invites you to explore a dark dreamworld of thrills, obsession, decadence and awe. A performance experience like no other, you will encounter strange characters, eldritch scenes and uncanny splendour as you journey deeper into the depths of mystery…
Is it nightmare or fantasy? Remembering or premonition? With curiosity your only guide, no two journeys are the same. Expect all sense to be tantalised – even (especially!) the spooky sixth.
Inspired by the life and works of the granddaddy of gothic, Edgar Allan Poe, A Midnight Visit is part choose your own adventure, part performance, part sound world, part surreal playground – and all parts absorbing. Flirting with the surreal and the absurd, while oozing steampunk, Stranger Things and David Lynch vibes, The House of Usher invites you to enjoy a hedonistic night out of a very different, dark and decadent variety.
