Blood Brothers is an immersive, site-specific theatrical experience set in the Delta Upsilon Fraternity. A modern-day adaptation of Julius Caesar, where the audience is free to roam into the night of a fraternity’s annual hazing ceremony, Blood Brothers follows twelve young characters at will as their stories unfold and collide throughout the frat house.

Messy, brash, bold and unapologetic, Blood Brothers tells the story of young men and women caught in the vortex of power, privilege, influence and desire. When we’re faced with everything we’ve ever wanted, who do we turn into? Can we ever become more than what we were born to be?

Audiences are empowered to follow characters and as they move throughout the house, spectating from the fringes of a vape filled living room or shadowing Marc Anthony into the kitchen. Maybe you follow the crowd as it’s drawn to the loudest scene. Maybe you stay seated in one place, letting the story come to you. The night you witness is dependent upon the path you choose.

Blood Brothers explores how fraternities are microcosms for our society, as masculinity, violence and power tear the frat house apart. The brotherhood of man protects those on the inside, always.
