Claws is creepy and well-acted, but leaves questions Claws is creepy and well-acted. I was thoroughly engaged the whole time and would certainly recommend it. There are 2 things that could have improved it for me though. I had some questions after the show about things that happened, but I don't know of any way to ask those of the creative team. I also wish I'd known how personal it could get. Because I didn't know, I was reluctant to answer personal questions, and that ended up hindering the resolution of the show--if I'd somehow known that, I would have been more open/honest about those questions.

This experience is one I'd love to do… This experience is one I'd love to do again! Would recommend it to anyone who wants that last push! The experience is personal and left me thinking about it to this day even and the actor did an amazing job!

Love It! Terrifying and so fun. They give you many options so you can decide how this story goes. I wish I could have saved the right person but not having done so made the ending very scary which was so fun. It's not too scary that it stops being fun but just the right amount so I'd recommend taking the call in the dark. Great voice actor too. I can't wait to do Lennox mutual at some point and tbh I wish they did more like this cause I'd buy tickets for it immediately.

Immersive, unique, and well worth your time Claws was such an incredibly immersive experience. I felt nervous coming into it. I didn't know what to expect from individual interactive theater. But they really bring you right into the scenario. An hour went by and I had no idea. I kept trying to talk after the call stopped at the end. They really make it so your choices affect the story, and Joel (the actor) did an incredible job bringing things we talked about into the setting. I also really appreciated the way they executed the preparation. They make sure you're prepared to take the call, and take the safety of everyone involved seriously. Such a unique way to experience theater! I will be keeping a lookout for future performances!

LOTS of fun and scares! This immersive theater event was LOTS of fun!! I didn't really know what to expect, and I was a little apprehensive doing something solo vs. with a group of participants. The actor was great, and I fell right into the story. I had plenty of opportunities to talk and interact, and the actor did a great job of keeping the story moving. I LOVED the ending, and have been telling lots of people about it. I am looking forward to anything else that the Candle House Collective chooses to present!
