SOFIE KROG
TEATER'S
THE HOUSE

“The House” tells the story of the Warehouse Family Funeral Home. On her deathbed the undertaker changes her last will and testament, a secret begins to unravel and an evil plan is formed. Sofie Krog and David Faraco lead their audience behind closed doors and into rooms which hide unspeakably dark deeds.

The performance takes place in a complex, revolving puppet set featuring intricate lighting, strange contraptions, and scary sound effects; the perfect setting for a comically chilling journey.
