Tickets: https://www.eventbrite.com/.../home-of-truth-a-ghost-town...
Home of Truth is an immersive, walk-through theatre
experience in the style of Sleep No More inside Allen Park. Based on true
events.
Story
In 1930’s america, Spiritualist leader Marie Ogden receives a ghostly message
through her typewriter about an apocalyptic calamity. She convinces her
followers to follow her to the Utah Desert to form the Home of Truth. A place
where they will be protected. As Marie's promises pile up, she struggles to
keep her following from coming undone.
Based on true events, Home of Truth is a play about the struggle between hope
and truth and how both can be twisted and weaponized.
A Play Unlike Any Other in Utah
Home of Truth will be set in Allen Park , a ghost town open to the public in
Sugar House, Utah. Audiences will walk through this unique setting and
experience the drama taking place in the Home of Truth collective. Scenes in
each act occur simultaneously and it is up to you to decide how you'd like to
explore the story. You may choose to see the story of the charismatic cult
leader, the true believer, or the apostate who is trying to bring it all
crashing down. Aside from theatrical scenes, the audience can find secrets in
Allen Park such as historical documents from the real Home of Truth in San Juan
County Utah, and discover the true events which transpired there.
There will be Dance Performances by Interdisciplinary Arts Collective,
Improvisational comedy, and other multimodal arts all contributing to the
story. You may want to come to multiple showtimes and experience the story in
new ways each time.
