Masquerade

October 19-21 | Peoria, AZ

Four years. It's been four years since the first group of innocent music students went missing at Riverton House. It's been three years since the woods around Riverton House lit up with the strange sights and sounds that swallowed up another group of curious music students. It's been two years since the Riverton House staff was found and committed to the Riverton Asylum and an entire year since their crazy delusions came to life! Despite the countless investigations, accusations and wild claims, the townspeople are no closer to understanding the truth about Masquerade. ...and to continue to search four years after it all began is the very definition of insanity. ...and yet. The mystery remains. What happened to the students at Masquerade? Why has noone heard from them? ...and even more importantly, what will happen THIS Halloween?

Now - four years later - Peoria townspeople have a new phenomenon to fear... The darkness surrounding Riverton Woods has begun to glow with an otherworldly light. Projected from the darkness itself, this light is bringing the woods to life in a cadaverous cavalcade of colors - beautiful if they weren't entirely unnatural. So... once again, the townspeople are bracing for new horrors. Once again, families are gathering their courage. Once again, the preparations have all been made. Once again, it's time for Masquerade.

Are you afraid of the dark? If so, wrap yourself in bright colors and anything that glows! Your flashlights won't save you this time as we journey deep into the Riverton Woods - deep into utter darkness. Once again, innocent audience members will suffer through nearly an hour of tonal torture as area piano students unleash their terrifying talent for Masquerade 2023 - Riverton Piano Company's Halloween-themed piano experience. Prepare yourself to face a darkness so complete that even the lights have turned black! ...but we must not falter! We must uncover the secret of Masquerade and make the Riverton Woods safe once again! Do you have what it takes?
