Support Tethered: An Immersive Theatrical Experience in Erie

Sandsun

TUESDAY, JUL. 25

You can get in on the ground floor of a new immersive theater project in Erie — which will be the first of its kind in the area. Born from the minds behind Lyons Den Productions, and with an impressive cast of characters from Erie's theater, dance, film, and nonprofit scene at the helm (including John C. Lyons, Corinne Justine, Nikki Behr, Jennifer Dennehy, Adele Desmone, Niecey Nicole, Sakhari Thomas, Anna McJunkin, and Mark Tanenbaum) the immersive theater experience titled Tethered is already off to an impactful start.

The story behind the experience centers around the self: the masks we put up and the often destructive behaviors we perpetuate because of those masks. According to the experience's creator John Lyons, "It's only when the mask falls that we are exposed and forced to see who we really are and the journey of healing and self-discovery may begin. Inspired by true events, Tethered will be an immersive theatrical experience, the first event of its kind in Erie, with your help."

On Tuesday, July 25, consider joining the committee of Tethered for a Kickstarter event to help get this unique performance art experience into production. Cost of admission to the event is a pledge of $25 or more to the group's Kickstarter, which will open the morning of the event at 8 a.m. This pledge will also include adult beverages, light appetizers, live music and performances, new film screenings by Lyons Den Productions, and an exclusive peek inside the minds of the Tethered creative team. If the group reaches their funding goal, supporters will also be among the first attendees of the ultimate Tethered experience.
