Paranormal Play SIMON SAYS is Coming To The Larcom Theater
Directed by Myriam Cyr, the play features a seance, a murder, and love.
Directed by the multi-award-winning Myriam Cyr, "Simon Says" by Boston's own Mat Schaffer will run from Wednesday, Oct. 16 through Sunday, Oct. 27 at the historic Larcom Theatre in downtown Beverly, MA. The Larcom, home to the Le Grand David magic extravaganza for 35 years, is the perfect venue for this haunting show.
A longtime Boston radio personality on WBCN and KISS 108, playwright Schaffer has interviewed psychics, channelers, clairvoyants, magicians, fortune tellers, spiritualists, and experts in past life regression. His research for the paranormal play included meeting with UPFologists, alternate historians, the skeptical, and of course - the curious.
The mystical play focuses on James, a talented young psychic, who explores his extrasensory ability by channeling Simon, an all-knowing being, who offers wisdom from beyond. A professor, attempting to scientifically prove the existence of the soul after death is working with James. One stormy night a young widow shows a up for a seance in the hopes of connecting with her dead husband and the paranormal adventure suddenly takes off connecting events that took place two thousand years ago culminating in redemption and resolution in the present day.
