Based on the exposé that shocked the world, “Ten Days in the Mad-house,” Infinite Variety Productions  and Wildrence’s newest show, Nellie and the Women of Blackwell, gives you the opportunity to join Nellie as she navigates the halls of Blackwell Asylum.

In this play, only 16 audience members are selected to follow our heroine, Nellie Bly as she discovers what the living conditions were like for Blackwell’s patients, many of whom were women.

What will you see? Who will you meet? And more importantly—how will you get out?
