 Fright Night Rochester Presents Caverns Deep
PBA Directors Lynne Crawford and Chris Herlong are producing a one-of-a-kind, haunted theatrical production scheduled to premier Thursday, October 8th and run through Saturday, October 31st. The attraction will be located at Panorama Plaza at the intersection of Penfield Road and Panorama Trail.
Lynne and Chris are targeting an audience of up to 35,000 participants. This is our opportunity to show the rest of Monroe County what Penfield has to offer. All businesses interested in sponsorship should contact Lynne Crawford as soon as possible as space is limited.
We are also casting 25 costumed characters to work (for pay) in the attraction. Open auditions will be held at Caverns Deep in Panorama Plaza on Saturday, September 12th between 10 am and 4 pm. For more information, contact Chris Herlong.
