In our last email, we linked to the abyss website and eventbrite. For some reason, clicking on that link causes an error, yet if you copy that exact URL into your browser you will see that it works. So please do that, or just go to abysstheshow.com and follow the link from there. Thanks and sorry for the spam.

Dear Backers,

Thanks so much for your patience -- this will be our last message to you, our backers. Everything is finally back on track and we are opening March 28th, in our Park Street storefront venue in New Haven. Our show will run for 10 performances during March 28-31, and if you are able to attend, I urge you to reserve seats now, which you can do at abysstheshow.eventbrite.com

Other info about the show is available as always at abysstheshow.com which will be updated shortly with the entire list of cast, ensemble, and crew.

Best,

The Abyss Team

Snowpocalypse - Abyss postponed to March

Update #4 · Feb 18, 2013 · comment

Dear backers,

Due to circumstances resulting from the massive snowstorm which completely shut down the northeast 10 days ago, Abyss has been postponed from its original dates. We want to alert you not to schedule travel plans for the original dates if you were planning on that. The show will likely be running from March 28th-March 31st. We'l be back in touch with final info about that within about a week. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you--we have been very frustrated by the situation but it's looking as though things will work out well in the end. Thanks for your patience and your support.

In the meantime check out our new promotional video by Jeffrey Star and our new logo by Rachel Kauder-Nalebuff at our website: http://www.abysstheshow.com/

Thanks,

Stephen and Charlie

    What do you know! We'll incorporate in image of you (or some other image if you want to keep your likeness private) into our visuals projections that occur during our show. The context for this will probably be terrifying though.
