“Our audiences have doubled this tour and I think it is a direct result of this script.”
Todd Espeland, Fort Wayne Youtheatre
“This play allowed for all of my students to have a chance to have bigger parts, especially those who might get over shadowed by a senior. It allowed everyone a moment to shine.”
Megan Randol, Williams High School
“I really feel the entire company has come to appreciate Poe as they hadn't before. ”
Kelly Fairchild-Fahrni, Cambridge-Isanti High School
“I appreciate the blocking for The Raven and other tips that were included in the script.”
Patricia Giles, Hardaway Theatre
“Had the best of experiences producing this with my class of 13-15 year olds. Many thanks!”
Vala Fannell, LLA
“I really loved producing and directing this play. There is so much you can do with the content, scene and costumes. This play gave my students the opportunity to work with prose, mask, backdrops, scene changes, voice, soundscape, movement and so much more. ”
david mitchell, Kang Chiao International School
“My students loved the show and really got into it.”
Jeffrey Ott, York Jr High School
“We used it as entertainment during our school's Trunk or Treat event instead of creating a haunted house. The audience loved the presentation and requested similar shows in the future.”
Virginia McCurry, Pell City High School
“The audiences LOVED it, and we were told by many different patrons that it was the best or neatest thing they had seen a high school group do. I loved that it let everyone be involved in the whole production and it made them all feel like they had important roles. It enabled everyone to have a moment to shine at one point or another by being a character in the story.”
Paige Hoke, York Country Day School
“Easy to keep all students included and occupied throughout the show. Fun and creepy adaptations of Poe's works.”
Ben Cole, Theatre School @ North Coast Rep
“Great experience for my Theatre 2 students! And the audiences really liked it. A great ensemble piece.”
Bing Cox, Panther Creek High School
“This was a super fun and challenging play!”
Laurianna May, Fleming School
“Once upon a midnight dreary,
While I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious
Volume of forgotten lore...”
The thumping of a heartbeat. The creak of a door. The howl of a bitter wind. The gong of a clock tower. The clang of alarm bells. The sound of beating wings getting closer and closer…
