Macabre author Edgar Allan Poe s classic tales come to life in this award-winning adaptation that s both original and familiar, with classic elements from several of his most famous stories.

It s nearly midnight, of course, and our troubled protagonist is having difficulty sleeping... or at least he thinks he is: I am haunted by dreams, even when I wake. And so I wander in this dazed stupor, unsure if I am awake or asleep, unsure if I am alive. With the Raven acting as a grim and mischievous tour guide, both the positively dead and the presumed living give breath to thrilling Poe retellings that have a finger firmly on the pulse of his greatest Gothic works, including The Tell-Tale Heart, The Fall of the House of Usher, The Pit and the Pendulum, The Masque of the Red Death, The Raven, and more. This ensemble full-length play has a hugely flexible cast of players in front of a ghoulish backdrop sure to invoke drama and horror long after the final curtain falls. Will Poe ever rest easy again? Will you? So sayeth the Raven: nevermore.
