About The Show
50 minute run time. Appropriate for ages 13 and over. Simulated lightning & thunder. Fog where permitted.
“Beautifully and effectively acted … Poe’s poetry and short stories have been read for almost two hundred years, but there is a profound difference between reading and hearing them performed by a highly talented actor utilizing a dramatic approach to the author’s ideas, words and language as he makes the literature come alive … A glorious way for Bridge Street Theatre’s SoloFest to conclude!”
-Macey Levin, Berkshire On Stage
