UP NEXT ON OUR STUDIO STAGE
FEEDING BEATRICE
A spine-chilling gothic tale.
A young Black couple moves into their dream home, only to discover they’re not alone. Beatrice, a mysterious woman from another era, haunts the house, forcing them to confront its dark history and the secrets that refuse to stay buried. Equal parts horror and social satire, Feeding Beatrice confronts the ghosts of race, privilege, and the cost of belonging.
