Come talk to the dead. Pulling directly from eye witness accounts of Victorian Seances, The Talking Dead pulls back the curtain on one of history’s more intriguing, mysterious, and most miss understood chapters, the Victorian Séance. Here we converse with spirit guides, receive messages from the beyond, and much more.

John Shore, noted magician and consummate story teller brings to life the experiences of those who attended Victorian Seances. Working from his extensive collection of source material, this performance is a magical, historical, and somewhat creepy adventure that aims to take the Hollywood out of our picture of Seances and give audiences a realistic look and what really happened. Along the way, we learn of several of the famous, eccentric, and surprising people that helped to keep Seances in the headlines.

Skeptics may become believers. Believers may be come skeptics. But fun will be had by all.
