Machickanee Players

Long-time patrons are well aware that we offer dinner with some of our shows and pie with other shows. But we’re doing something new and different. We’ve collaborated with a nonprofit organization, Haunters Against Hate, to produce an exclusive shirt design that we are selling as an optional add-on with tickets for “Frankenstein”.

The term “haunter” refers to individuals who work in the haunt entertainment industry – which covers a wide range of performers, set builders, artists, and administrators who work at haunted house attractions, and people who perform similar functions on professional film and television productions. Several members of the cast and crew of “Frankenstein” are professional and seasoned haunters, while several more have had recent experience working as haunters for the first time.

Haunters Against Hate is a nonprofit organization that provides support to other nonprofits that serve the LGBTQ community. Formed in response to backlash to the Pulse nightclub shooting in 2016, Haunters Against Hate highlights the positivity and tolerance that is found in abundance within the haunt community.

How to Order: Shirts can be ordered through our ticketing platform, Ludus. However, the shirts can be ordered independently of show tickets. That means (1) if you already bought show tickets but didn’t get a shirt yet, you still can order a shirt and (2) if you’re not ready to reserve your show tickets yet, you can still get your shirt order in now. Simply click on any of the “GET TICKETS” buttons, skip seat selection and scroll down to “Additional Items”. Choose your shirt size and quantity, then proceed with completing the order like you would any other purchase.

Order Deadlines and Pick-Up Instructions: Although shirts can be ordered any time before “Frankenstein” wraps on Sunday, February 18^th, only those shirts ordered on or before January 19^th will be ready and available for pick-up during “Frankenstein”. Shirts ordered after January 19^th will have to be picked up either during our next show (“Twelve Angry Jurors” in May 2024), or at some other event when the theatre is open to the public (after March 11^th). Shirts not picked up by the end of June 2024 may be donated to local charity.

Free Tickets Promo: Anyone who orders a shirt will receive a discount good for a free ticket to see “Frankenstein: In Stitches”. If you order more than one shirt, you will get an equal number of free tickets. “In Stitches” will be a special encore performance – an improvised parody – on Sunday, February 18^th at 6pm.
