“So Late Into the Night Catches us by the throat and leads us briskly into a confrontation with fate.” – DC Theater Arts
“Rorschach can be counted on for complex, often dark, productions marked by vivid, imaginative visuals. And this work, directed by Jenny McConnell Frederick, is no exception” – Broadway World
“When has Rorschach been known for following the rules? These dark fantasists that lurk around the District thrive on the oddities of their work. It’s why they’re who they are, and it’s why So Late Into the Night is often quite good. It’s an experience, a removal from reality that keeps you away from the norms of the grind by whirling a hodgepodge of ideas around you in a twister of Halloween brood, for better or worse. And then it says: ‘Let’s rock.'” – Morris Theatre DC
Take a seat at the table as Mary Shelley gathers her friends and lovers to look into the afterlife. On the precipice of writing her masterpiece Frankenstein, Mary discovers someone from the future is looking back. SO LATE INTO THE NIGHT is an unforgettable rock séance in DC’s iconic Buzzard Point neighborhood.
Known for their dynamic activations across the city, Rorschach is thrilled to launch a fall residency at The Stacks in Buzzard Point. This unique neighborhood is set at the confluence of the Potomac and Anacostia Rivers, just south of Audi Field. Rorschach’s SO LATE INTO THE NIGHT will activate a distinctive high-ceilinged corner retail space in this vibrant new neighborhood, developed by Akridge and National Real Estate Development. Before performances, audiences can stroll along the river, enjoy pre-show drinks at The Point or Hen Quarter and explore The Stacks’ expansive outdoor spaces.
ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE: Expect bright and flashing lights, plus some big sounds. The action will unfold up close for an intimate experience—but don’t worry, you’ll stay a spectator. The audience is never part of the performance.
The show is recommended for 13 and up:
