Casting Call
UnLeashed Theatre presents Sister Seance
A new play by Jo McIver Lee
Directed by Em Perez
Performing October 3 - 19, 2025 at The Bug Theatre
When three sisters take a camping trip to honor the passing of their late mother they stumble across a lost camp counselor who can speak with the spirits. Through a seance gone awry, they are forced to reconcile their relationships with each other, their mother, and ultimately themselves in this comedic but heart wrenching tale of grief and family.
