Behind The Scenes with A House Tour of the Infamous Porter Family Mansion with Tour Guide Weston Ludlow Londonderry

__________

About 45 brave and eager souls volunteered to be “test bodies” for our upcoming world premiere play/experience A House Tour starring Danny Scheie, written by Peter Nachtrieb and directed by Jason Eagan. For two hours on the test crowd followed Danny through a number of different “pathways" and “rooms” of a mansion, as our amazing team of designers looked on and took notes. Nobody will look at butter the same way again.
