Fright Night - Theatrical Horror Scenes & Monologues
Fright Night invites audiences into an evening of live horror theatre featuring original scenes, terrifying characters, suspenseful storytelling, and unexpected scares performed by local actors.
Hosted at the Cary Saurage Community Arts Center (233 St. Ferdinand St., Baton Rouge, LA 70802), Fright Night transforms the theatre into a collection of unsettling stories where you never quite know what—or who—is waiting in the darkness.
From creatures lurking just out of sight to disturbing encounters and stories that take a terrifying turn, each performance brings a different kind of fear to the stage. Come ready to experience horror up close and see what happens when theatre gets a little darker.
Bring your friends, choose your night, and prepare to get spooky with 225 Theatre Collective.
Dates: Friday, October 16th & Saturday, October 17th Time: 7PM
Location: Cary Saurage Community Arts Center, Downtown Baton Rouge
Presented by: 225 Theatre Collective
Please note: This production contains horror themes, frightening imagery, sudden scares, loud noises, and periods of darkness. Viewer discretion is advised.
