MANSION

Theatre and Physical Theatre • Circus
Victoria • SA Premiere

From the creative team behind the award winning box office hits MATADOR & ORACLE, comes this spine tingling, gothic fusion of dance, circus & burlesque.

Newly widowed Mel Walker, her son Levi & daughter Rachel have just moved into the Mansion in search of new beginnings. Little did they know they were stepping into a paranormal, torrid love story, laced with lust, temptation, nightmares, heart break, and pure horror!

The family starts to fall apart in the face of evil as seductive, demonic spirits exploit their fragility for their own etnertainment. The eternal battle between good & evil is fought within the walls of the MANSION.

"Unlikely you have ever seen a show quite like Mansion. It will engage & intrigue & most definitely thrill & delight!"Australian Stage
