Here Before: An Interactive Séance Experience

Join us for a special interactive séance experience. 

Government House Historical Society and Government House invite you to step through the doors of Government House and step back in time with Live History’s immersive production, Here Before. This is a theatrical performance with audience engagement as they attempt to solve challenges that move the story along.

The year is 1905. Saskatchewan is on the cusp of becoming a province, and you are no mere spectator—you will take on the role of a real historical figure, drawn into an evening of laughter, conversation, and celebration. Join in parlour games, mingle with fellow guests of another century, and feel the excitement of the night.

But amid the revelry lies mystery. The evening’s centerpiece is a visiting psychic medium—rumoured to have ties to the world beyond. Will their visions bring comfort, delight, or a chill you cannot shake? What truths—or terrors—might they reveal?

When the celebration draws to a close and you return to the present, you will leave with the uncanny sensation that you have indeed been Here Before.

Please note: This is a fictional, audience-interactive performance.

There are two performances taking place on October 18, 2025.

Age restrictions are 12+ for the afternoon performance (due to difficulty of puzzles) and 19+ for the evening performance (due to presence of alcohol).

The evening (19+) performance includes a reception with a cash bar. The menu of drinks will be announced closer to the event.

It is encouraged to dress in Victorian costumes to immerse yourself in the experience.
