THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO JOINED US FOR SEQUELAE! STAY TUNED FOR WHAT’S NEXT.
Deep in the winding woods, far from the prying eyes of the village, dwell the exiled coven. Cast aside by society for their dark arts, they have forged a defiant existence in the shadows, where no man knows of what hedonistic and devious deeds may take place. Under the eerie glow of the moon, they convene and conjure, drawing power from the energies that pulse through the forest. With each ritual, there is risk; with every choice, a cost.
A grim and gruesome tale of powerful love, unbreakable sisterhood, and eternal scars of loss unfolds. Together the coven must learn that not all can be controlled with magic, and they will face the consequences of daring to defy death.
Sometimes our choices are the scariest part of the story.
Trigger Warning: This is a horror-based dance show which includes themes and scenarios that may be uncomfortable or triggering for certain individuals. Including: Death, grief, loss of a partner, dark magic, thoughts of suicide, (domestic) violence, gore, sexual themes. This show is abstract in nature with space for interpretation and therefor may bring up additional, less directly intentional themes / triggers.

Should I arrive early to claim a seat?
If you’ve purchased GA tickets, you may want to arrive early to claim your desired seats. There are enough seats with a good view of the stage for all ticket holders, but specific seats are first come, first claimed! If you’ve purchased VIP or Table Seating, we will have a great table reserved for you. You may still want to come early to enjoy the atmosphere and grab a drink at the bar!
If I have purchased a reserved table, does my entire party need to arrive together?
No, just make sure each person has a different one of your 4 purchased tickets to present. Our ushers will just need the name of the ticket buyer to show you to your table.
Are there minimum age or ID requirements to enter the event?
This event is 19+. Any ticket holder unable to present valid identification indicating that they are at least 19 years of age will not be admitted to this event, and will not be eligible for a refund.
Do I have to bring a printed ticket to the event?
You will receive a digital ticket via email that you can add to your Apple wallet or show as a PDF on your device.
Will the performers be interacting with the audience?
This is a stage show, but the performers will use the entire space at times and there will be some interaction with the audience. Those seated at VIP tables should be prepared to have a more immersive experience, as outlined in the description of the ticket type. Other seating types will allow for a more flexible experience and seats in the centre of the main audience section (away from danceable areas) will be the most securely removed from the action. Our performers always have their eye out for our established ‘no interaction please’ single of crossing your arms in an X in front of you, but they are also immersed in their performance, so please choose seats that feel comfy for you. If you have any questions or would like to communicate any needs to us prior to attending, pleases feel free to reach out via email at viscerapresents@gmail.com
A reminder that audience members may NOT touch performers at any time unless clear consent is given.
Can I film and take photos during the show?

*Please be conscious not to disturb the experience of other audience members by blocking someone’s view or using your device in a way that is overly distracting (ie filming for long periods, high screen brightness, etc)
*We ask that you AVOID POSTING VIDEO CLIPS OVER 30 SECONDS of the show itself. The contents of the show are intellectual property belonging to the Viscera and the artists and we would like to avoid having entire numbers shared online.

What is the refund policy?

Where can I find more information about the venue (parking, coat check, ins + outs, etc)?
Is this venue inclusive and accessible?
