Theatricus is a nonprofit performing arts collective dedicated to promoting and producing new and provocative works in theatre. Founded on the principles of volunteerism and guided by seasoned theatre professionals, Theatricus has quickly become a beacon for artistic collaboration and community engagement.
With a team of experienced artists and administrators, the collective is dedicated to nurturing new talent and fostering creativity in the performing arts. Following the successes of CONSTELLATIONS by Nick Payne in June 2024 and the World Premiere of STILL LIFE IN CENTRAL PARK in February 2026 (both at The MAIN in Santa Clarita), Theatricus continues to build on its early achievements. |

Elise has moved on but not away, staying on the infamous family property and running it as an archery school. Harry, on the other hand, has made his living off any true crime podcast and documentary opportunity he can find to exploit his father. But when Harry returns home with dreams of converting it into a murder house tourist attraction, both siblings are forced to confront their own buried secrets in order to escape their father's long-reaching shadow. |
