Welcome to The Abysm, a bar situated between the living and the dead. Dripping in neon and covered in plants, only spirits and ghosts are allowed. But for HAUS OF DUST, six humans are invited to experience an intimate open mic performance, where ten specters entertain with stories of identity, love, and survival.

A mix of video, immersive installation, and live performance, HAUS OF DUST is a hybrid, multi-sensory, and immersive ghost story that guides the audience into a hallucinatory world that intersects addiction, recovery, queerness, and immigration.
