A tap at a chamber door and the beat of a hideous heart evoke the very best and creepiest of Edgar Allan Poe. So when Poe sets out to keep his stories alive from beyond the grave, an otherworldly radio studio proves just the thing. Wandering spirits gather to play the roles in Poe’s most classic works: The Cask of the Amontillado, The Fall of the House of Usher, The Raven, and The Telltale Heart. But the grim master of the macabre is a little new to radio. What’s all this about commercials? And why is a skeptical cemetery cat sticking around for all these stories?
Local actors Linda Pyles, Amy Jo Harley, Janelle Child, Lydonna Marks, Nan Brown, Sue Matney and Kelly Brown bring these stories back to life, featuring live music and sound effects. Director Garry Estep will open the show with some chillingly haunting organ music.
As always, admission to Serious Theater productions is by donation. There is limited safe seating available in the Zion Lutheran Church sanctuary for these shows, and masks are required.
