at Heritage Square Museum

"𝕸𝖆𝖘𝖖! " is an original immersive experience from the creators of “Fangs!" and "Witch!". Experience a masked ball come to ruin as a vengeful phantom appears, seeking justice.

Prepare to be separated from the people you came with and have a unique experience as you meet the people of La Serenissima at the festival of Carnevale. You may encounter performers one-on-one; you will traverse a world of haunted mansions and an abandoned church. Limited audience per show. Reserve early.

"Masq!" will run at Heritage Square Museum from August 23rd - September 2nd.

Get a jump on Halloween! Following last year's sold-out run of “fangs!", our team is bringing the world premiere of our original production "Masq!" to the spectacular Heritage Square Museum. Get your tickets early for an unforgettable Halloween experience!

Complimentary alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages will be offered before the show.

Walking shoes and comfortable clothing are highly recommended. The experience will require walking over the large museum grounds on which we will perform.

Please reach out to us directly with any questions; we answer them promptly on Eventbrite

Sancta Susanna: A Horror Opera
October 24 & 25, 2024 | 7:30PM
The Church at Heritage Square Museum

Just in time for Halloween, Source/Filter proudly presents the West Coast Premiere of Paul Hindemith’s daring and rarely-performed opera, Sancta Susanna! This boundary-pushing horror opera will feature a new English libretto by Britta Sterling and Rae Shrum with a fully-immersive staging at Heritage Square Museum’s historic Lincoln Avenue Church.

Sancta Susanna transports audiences to a secluded convent where an innocent nun, Susanna, grapples with disturbing satanic visions. As she seeks solace from her mother superior, she uncovers a dark and sinister secret hidden within the convent's walls. Inspired by cult horror classics like Dario Argento’s Suspiria and Ken Russell’s The Devils, this production aims to deliver a spine-chilling performance that questions whether the nun will fall victim to her inner demons.

The evening will also feature a chilling choral program of atmospheric pieces for chamber treble voices performed by our talented chorus of evil nuns. The repertoire will include haunting works by composers Benjamin Britten, Nadia Boulanger, Hildegard von Bingen, and more.

Stick around after the performance for a demonic dance party featuring a live DJ playing everyone's favorite macabre hits! Costumes are strongly encouraged for this event. Tickets on sale now for just $15-50!

Sister Midnight

Film Festival

at Heritage Square Museum

Sister Midnight, now in its sophomore year, stands as an immersive Los Angeles-based film festival blending the realms of thriller, metaphysical exploration, and surrealism. With a nod to cult theater and the late night era of film screenings, our curated selection of short films, performances and artwork delves into the enigmatic, the otherworldly, and the deeply introspective.

From spine-tingling narratives to mind-bending visual journeys, we invite international filmmakers to showcase their creations, offering a platform where the boundaries of reality are blurred and the audience is transported to new dimensions of storytelling.

Join us on November 7, 8, 9, 10, 2024
