Shadows in the Hall (Friday)

An Immersive Theatrical Experience at Johnson Hall

After last year’s pilot, Shadows in the Hall returns to Johnson Hall Opera House for two unforgettable nights of immersive theater.

Step inside the historic 1864 Johnson Hall and explore three floors transformed into a living, breathing performance space. As you move from room to room, you’ll encounter a series of eerie vignettes brought to life by more than 30 actors. Some characters whisper stories of the past, while others seem bound to the building itself, shadows of moments that never fully faded.

This isn’t a show you sit and watch. It’s an experience you walk through — where every corner holds a secret, and every shadow hides a story.

Expect the unexpected.Discover haunting performances around every turn.Become part of one of the most unique theater events in the region.

Shadows in the Hall is immersive. It’s haunting. And it’s unlike anything else you’ll experience this October.

• Time Slot Reservations: Please be advised that when you purchase tickets, you are selecting a specific tour time slot.
• Immersive Experience: Shadows in the Hall is not a traditional sit-down performance. Guests will move through the building as part of a guided, walk-through experience lasting approximately 30 minutes. While there may be brief opportunities to sit, most of the event requires standing and walking.
• Outdoor Gathering Space: Before your tour begins, please gather in the park adjacent to Johnson Hall, complete with tall outdoor heaters to keep you warm and cozy and adult beverages will be served and be taken through the building during your tour.
• What to Expect: This is not a typical haunted house. Instead, you’ll encounter a series of short, eerie scenes with unexpected twists. Some material may touch on sensitive themes — viewer discretion is advised.
• Arrival Time: Please arrive at least 15 minutes before your scheduled tour. Late arrivals may not be accommodated, and tickets are non-refundable, as this event supports Johnson Hall’s programming.
• Timing: Tours may run a few minutes behind schedule, but we’ll do our best to keep everything on time.

Thank you for supporting Johnson Hall — we hope you enjoy this one-of-a-kind, haunting experience!
