Hellerween: Shorts to Scare You Shortless
Oct. 24 – 26 at 7 p.m.
Tickets on sale now
The Oklahoma Center for the Humanities is proud to partner with Heller Theatre Company and bring back Hellerween! The Halloween-themed play festival features six short plays, all written, directed and performed by local theatre artists. Light bites and a cash bar will be available to attendees. Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased through Eventbrite.
As the OCH continues to explore the theme of “SPACE” this year, we look to Hellerween as an event that sees space as transformative. The artists have the task of taking a nontraditional theatre space and utilizing its features to fit the story they are trying to tell. Not to mention, 101 Archer will briefly turn into a haunted house for the event to help get the audience into the Halloween mood.
