Séance with Nicholas Wallace

"Séance is scary, but it is also damned entertaining." - Richard Ouzounian/Toronto Star

In this completely immersive experience, illusionist Nicholas Wallace invites you to join him in exploring the world of the Victorian spirit medium, in what is reliably being called "the first attempt to use an actual séance as part of a theatrical entertainment."

At each performance of Séance, one audience member is chosen to become The Medium. It is a different person every night. There is no way of knowing who will be chosen, what might happen, or who they might become.

You will explore the evolution of the Séance room. You will take part in an experiment to contact the dead. You will be scared.

Whether you're a diehard skeptic, or an enthusiastic believer this experience promises to be mind-boggling, mysterious, and genuinely creepy. If you have a nervous disposition, please think twice before attending.

*PLEASE NOTE: SHOW WILL START PROMPTLY AT 8:00. LATE COMERS WILL NOT BE ADMITTED!
