Elise

Elise

In the interactive theater production, the audience votes upon what decisions the protagonist should make and help solve puzzles for her as the show progresses. Will you help lead her to safety or unknowingly to her unfortunate demise?


During the bank rushes in 1930, the start of The Great Depression, Clara loses her father to the frantic stampede of people desperately attempting to withdraw their money from the bank before it vanishes. To help keep her family out of the factories Clara accepts a position she was offered, thanks to the graciousness of a family friend who had taken pity upon them, as a peer adviser/dorm attendant at a remote boarding school. This unexpected dream position however turns into a nightmare when the ghost of a missing student, Elise, appears before her.

Though unable to recall the details tied to her death, Elise knows her end was a violent one and has a strong sense that Clara is about to meet a similar fate as her own. The ghost claims that if her belongings, which have been wrongfully taken from her room, are returned to her she believes that she will know more and perhaps be better able to understand why she died as well as protect Clara from coming to an unfortunate end.

Unsure though filled with a primal fear of death, Clara commits herself to the task. How else is she to discover the truth when she is surrounded by those seemingly desperate to hide it?
