UNBOUND: a haus of haunts Immersive Event - Main Image

Pick a room, follow a character, explore the library. There’s a haunt in every corner. ​ Presented in partnership with the New York Public Library, UNBOUND is a spooky, immersive dance experience inspired by the works of Emily Dickinson. ​ Come and explore the catacombs of a daemon, have an encounter with a witch’s coven, or party at the vampire banquet as the story unfolds. Whether you choose to visit us for a single show or spend your whole evening with us, we’ll have you dying – for more. ​ Tickets are FREE! Presented every Friday in October at the Jefferson Market Library

Audience Role

There are multiple floors to explore and lots of haunts to meet. We encourage you to follow your curiosities and wander where you wish, when you wish. For everyone’s safety, interacting with our frights means respecting their personal space, so please do not touch them. On a similar safety note, there are guides on every floor to help you if needed.
