Professor Hemlock's Mansion is an innovative multimedia theatrical event in which the audience becomes immersed into the story by interacting with the performers and their surroundings. Step into Professor Hemlock's truly magnificent Golden Age Mansion built in the 1920's on Manhattan's Upper East Side, and you will immediately be transported to the Roaring Twenties. If you ever wanted to step back in time to attend a Great Barons Golden Age Gala complete with parlor games- now is YOUR chance! Attendees are encouraged to dress in 1920's attire to seamlessly fade into the woodwork and become part of the play.

Emerging New York City director, Shane Logue, conceived and collaborated with other talented local artists and fellow New York University Tisch School of the Arts graduates. Professor Hemlock's Mansion will be performed on E. 63th Street between Madison and Fifth Avenue, across from the Central Park Zoo on Saturday and Sunday, August, 29th and 30th at 11:30am, 4:30pm, and 8:30pm each day. Future dates will be announced on the website and newsletter.

You will be greeted in the Jazz Quartet Quarters, while flapper's dance in the Charleston Chambers to the sound of popping champagne! In the Dapper Den, behold the mystical of One of the Great and Powerful Magicians, then head over for a Tarot card reading in the Seance Salon where a Psychic will reveal mysteries beyond the grave.

Spies have been known to infiltrate Professor Hemlock's previous galas, to seek out his secret laboratory. Don't be surprised if something deviously deceptive occurs that will make you question the identity of those closest to you. What secrets does Professor Hemlock's Mansion hold? There are rumors that the mansion is haunted.

Nothing is as it seems in this mysterious and satirical nonlinear narrative. You may have so much fun...you will never be able to leave! Professor Hemlock's Mansion is great for team building and is truly timeless not only in its historical but cultural context.

Logue's production company, Flix Maven, largely produced with support from generous donors, as well as a grant from NYU. No two performances are the same so keep that in mind when booking.
