Really amazing experience Really amazing experience. I was scared pretty much the whole time, and it was creepily intimate. The performance by Vincent D’Avanzo was chilling and convincing, and I’ll definitely be haunted by it as I try to fall asleep tonight!

The whole thing was kind of meh The whole thing was kind of meh, in terms of writing and concept. The actor was good enough with what he had to work with, but at a certain point I realized he needed me to take my role in a different direction in order to get back on the scripted story path.

Claws was ENTHRALLING Claws was an incredible immersive performance, based on a very simple pretense. I was utterly absorbed, and as with all good horror, utterly devastated by the ending. I am usually very nervous about immersive/interactive experiences, but the acting and soundscaping pulled me in completely- which was my ultimate downfall. I got tricked, and the guilt will haunt me for a while. All told, an awesome horror experience, and I look forward to the next one! Well worth the money for the ticket, and a tip to your performer!

Creepy, but not as scary as I thought. This was an incredible experience. It was between a role playing game, proxy escape room, and a scripted play. The acting was very good. I have two small comments but I don't want to spoil anyone for anyone who hasn't had the call yet so I might find another way to give feedback. The price was very reasonable for the amazing experience. I wish I could have recorded it in some way. I highly recommend.

Phenomenal! Claws was extraordinary! An ingenious, gripping and fiercely innovative theatrical experience like nothing I’ve ever encountered before. Clever writing and a jaw-droppingly brilliant performance by the actor, Joel Meyers. If you’re the kind of person who goes to immersive theatre secretly hoping to be blessed with even the briefest moment that is the heart pounding, intense delight of a one-on-one performance, this is for you. And if you’ve got no idea what I’m talking about, it’s for you also - I can’t imagine anyone not being thrilled, charmed and utterly transported by this unique production.
