Haunt Me (MACH 33 Festival)

Frautschi Hall, Hameetman Center

Haunt Me

by James Still

directed by Abigail Deser

Science Advisor: Solvin Sigurdson

Dementia Advisor: Anna Schlobohm de Cruder

Best-selling horror writer Ellery du Trent is mysteriously disappearing into the novel she's writing, with the unsettling assistance of an AI program called MUSE. Haunt Me is an intimate psychological horror where fiction and reality slowly blur, revealing how memory, identity, and creation can slip away when the stories we tell seem to take on a life of their own. Sometimes the scariest story of all turns out to be your own life.

Stay for a talkback with the playwright and creative team after the reading!

All audience members are warmly invited to join us at 6pm for a reception! Come and enjoy meeting our playwrights, actors, and science advisors.
