This intimate performance uses the works of Edgar Allan Poe to tell the story of 6 spirits whose tragedies in life keep them from moving on in death. "Shades of Poe" is presented as a house tour using the different rooms as different settings for the stories.  Instead of the audience remaining stationary while the actors move on and off a stage, the audience moves throughout the 19th century farmhouse to hear complete tellings of Poe's spookiest works: The Raven, The Tell-Tale Heart, The Imp of the Perverse, Berenice, and the Cask of Amontillado.

 

This year, we have added one more amazing tale: The Black Cat.

 

And your tour is hosted by the master himself: Edgar Allan Poe. 

 

ADA DISCLAIMER: Please be aware that this performance involves standing, walking, climbing stairs, and moving through dimly lit areas.
