Immersive THE LIMINARY World Premiere to be Presented at Last Call Theatre This Spring

Last Call Theatre will present the world premiere of its upcoming immersive exploration of immigration and community, The Liminary. The Liminary previews Saturday, April 25th and runs May 1 - 16 at 1919 3rd Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90018.

In Last Call Theatre's latest immersive, interactive experience, The Liminary, participants are welcomed to a safehouse in the year 2042, a year that the U.S. Census Bureau once predicted the nation would comprise a minority-majority, with white Americans making up less than 50% of the population. In this world, the U.S. never reaches that statistic. Instead, a nationalistic, isolationist government maintains a stranglehold on its people, immigration to and from the U.S. has ceased, and the system seeks to destroy anything and anyone deemed "un-American." Still, there are always those who will fight back against tyranny, and the residents of the "Liminary" are part of that resistance. Will you join them?

"For immigrants and members of many historically marginalized communities, this past year has been a particularly difficult point in American history," says Creative Lead and Director Liviera Lim. "But what we can't forget or ignore is how many stories have also come out about us resisting in the moment, coming together, and creating a history we can be proud of. Stories like these are important, now more than ever, and I want audiences to know that they are a part of this story with us. We see them, we welcome them, and we are not, and have never been, alone."

With interactive exhibits around immigration, community, and hope as well as multiple endings and narratives crafted by and around the stories of immigrants in our community, The Liminary invites you on the journey of the American experiment we are all on together.

The show is also supporting two local immigrant rights non-profits: Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles (CHIRLA) and the International Institute of Los Angeles (IILA). 50% of all concession sales will be donated to CHIRLA, and as part of one of the show activations, audience will assemble school and hygiene kits to donate to IILA after the run's conclusion. Donations of school and hygiene supplies are appreciated to support this effort.
