call of cthulu

At tonight's meeting of the Boston Theosophical Brotherhood, we have a special guest: esoteric traveller  Miranda Carter, who turns her curiosity for the queer and unusual toward a more local mystery: the ghost ship Alert that washed ashore a few months ago with no crew. As first on site, Miss Carter shares with us her theory on what happened, based on clues found in the cabin. These include an undeveloped bit of film that will be shown, on stage, live, and for the first time ever.

Join Miranda Carter as she takes us on a voyage of discovery... and possibly madness... with the help of her amazing magic lantern!

Fresh from a series of sold out Lovecraftian shadow puppet shows, TL Wiswell turns her hand to the magic lantern, bringing "Call of Cthulhu" to life in a new and original format with theremin accompaniment. The magic lantern is an early version of the slide show, with hand painted glass plates, phosphorus lighting (replaced for safety's sake with an incandescent bulb), and a touch of the quirky. There are no guarantees that cultists may not attend this show - you have been warned!

"Wiswell ... managed to surprise even the most fervent Lovecraft devotees."
