DESCRIPTION:
Enter if you dare and experience “Ghosts of USC.” Taking place at an enchanting-but-spooky Tudor Revival mansion just north of University Park Campus, this immersive, walk-through theatrical event will transport audiences to 1880, when USC was founded, and to the explosive history of Los Angeles at the turn of the twentieth century. But beware: visitors from the other side may join as well.

This innovative historical haunting is a collaboration between the students and faculty of the USC School of Dramatic Arts; guest artists from the award-winning Company of Angels, the oldest non-profit professional equity waiver theatre in Los Angeles; and students and faculty from the USC School of Cinematic Arts’ brand-new Themed Entertainment program.

Presented by USC Visions and Voices. Organized by the USC School of Dramatic Arts. Co-sponsored by the USC School of Cinematic Arts, USC Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism, the USC Libraries, and Company of Angels.
