Lonely Hearts: The Game
Chicago’s longest-running Immersive story, Lonely Hearts, returns for its 6th year!
Chicago’s longest-running Immersive story, Lonely Hearts, returns for its 6th year - back in person for the first time since 2020! A lot has changed in the last two years, and the world of Rigby’s is no different. Last year’s installment mourned the closure of Rigby’s Tavern- a mecca for lovers and loners alike to meet annually for a drink and an intimate exploration of love and relationships. How will we re-capture the spirit of Rigby’s between new walls? Will our lonely hearts find each other as they have before? Join your favorite hosts- Mackenzie Rigby, the Gin Savant Beatrix Von Hopper, and the Gentlewoman Giles Henry for the next chapter- Lonely Hearts: the Game. What is the game exactly? You’ll have to play to find out. You will join an exclusive group to playtest the newest Rigby’s creation- and your contributions could find a permanent home in the final version of the game. New and returning lovers alike will be surprised and delighted by this Valentine’s Day experience like no other. It’s a game. It’s an immersive experience. It’s Lonely Hearts…as you’ve never played it before.

About Birch House Immersive
We seek to accomplish one thing: remove the barriers that typically exist between performers and audience. We extend a hand across the proscenium, inviting you, the audience, to join us on equal footing in exploring (and sometimes creating) the story. We invite you to engage with the world of the play in tangible ways- exploring the space, interacting with characters (in groups and one-on-one), and completing tasks that drive the story forward and put you at the center of the experience.
