Critical Role will bring their Candela Obscura to a live audience for the first time.

Announced today, the Candela Obscura live show will take place on Saturday, May 25 at The United Theater on Broadway (929 S Broadway) in Los Angeles. Candela Obscura game designer Spenser Starke will be the Game Master with Critical Role’s Matthew Mercer (The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingon, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth), Laura Bailey (The Last of Us, Spider-Man 2), and Marisha Ray (The Last of Us: Part II, Fallout 76) being joined by special guest Khary Payton (The Walking Dead, Teen Titans Go!) as the investigators. Critical Role’s Taliesin Jaffe (Helsing, The Legend of Vox Machina) will be the M.C. for the evening.

A synopsis for Candela Obscura reads:

Set in a fictional world known as the Fairelands, Candela Obscura is an original anthology horror series that follows an esoteric order of investigators, ranging from professors to criminals to mediums, who join the secret order of “Candela Obscura” and work together to confront mysterious, chaotic, and supernatural forces. The general public is unaware of the otherworldly truths of these paranormal phenomena, and the organization known as Candela Obscura works to maintain that secrecy and keep the world safe. Leveraging gaming as a story mechanic, these esoteric protectors use guile and teamwork to root out ancient horrors before they spread throughout the Fairelands.
