*longer description*
Straight from its successful invitational run at the legendary Williamstown Theatre Festival, this haunting magical and musical immersive theatrical experience explores the space between life and death and invites all participants to sink into and revel in the unknown. Come along with the Director, the Spiritualist, and the Orator as you navigate the Deceased brain’s final firings. As electrical impulses continue beyond heart beats, will anyone ever truly cross over or are we stuck in the seemingly eternal dream state of increasingly infinitesimal electric impulses?

The Wake, a site specific immersive journey, is inhabiting our space here at SideQuest Theater. Read below for a taste of what’s in store (or don’t – the choices start here)…

You step inside a theater in Center City Philadelphia. The stage is set in an unexpected fashion. The Director here at Daniel Graboli’s Funeral Practice greets you with the guest book and a funeral chip to mark your time at The Wake. Your evening celebrating the life of the lucky Deceased begins with beautiful music pouring from the Orator and filling the room. The Spiritualist may find you and offer you comfort or answers, depending on what you seek in your time of need.

The veil slides back as the Ceremony begins and the sound of brooding accordion fills the room even more. You are compelled towards the sound only to be greeted by The Attendant, whose aim is to elevate your experience with us here at Graboli’s. We begin as the Deceased is revealed to us all, even themselves. Not an actor but a regular person – one just like you – only they are gifted this evening with the hope of transition from this realm into the next.

Magic show? Seance? Concert? Play? Choose Your Own Adventure? Yes.
