BURIED ALIVE! a matchbox theatre
Intriguing, hysterical, historical, minute, and very macabre.

Buried Alive! a matchbox theatre, is a frightfully funny exploration of our fear of being buried alive and of the curious phenomenon of 19th Century “waiting mortuaries.” Based on historical and medical facts. Tiny, intimate and interactive, full of dreadful discoveries for an adult audience.
BURIED ALIVE! is performed on a tabletop and is constructed entirely in and of matchboxes. It takes advantage of the unique qualities of these tiny stages: images and characters slide out, slide through, pop up, and drop out of the matchboxes. A merry eccentric matron is your guide. BURIED ALIVE! is creatively anachronistic and plays with scale.
