The Stacks: An Immersive Mystery

Taking place in the old library stacks of the former Carnegie Library in Moline, IL, The Stacks: An Immersive Mystery is based around a fictional unsolved murder of Sam Hawkins. The Stacks invites audiences to the night of September 25, 1957, when the body of Hawkins is found in the stacks of a small Catholic college library . The play takes place simultaneously on multiple floors and in multiple rooms, and as the story unfurls, audience members can decide where to go and what to see, ensuring that everyone’s journey is unique, and each visit is different. Each character has a specific track and tells a different perspective of the story. Guests can choose to follow one actor or move around to different scenes in an attempt to answer the question, “Who killed Sam Hawkins?”
