See it if You’re a Poe fan nightmares come to life!
Don't see it if You’re not looking for a spooky evening.
See it if you enjoy well-executed readings by fine actors; classic horror stories, complete with 1930's radio sound effects, have lots of imagination
Don't see it if you don't have the concentration for 19th century story-telling (it takes awhile to get to the inevitable point) don't like scary imagery
See it if you enjoy dramatic story telling in an atmospheric environment. The writing is marvelous and the minimal staging works well.
Don't see it if you are looking for a full performance with sets and costumes. This is a essentially a reading.
See it if You're in the mood for something different. Great acting, Fun presentation. Warning: seats are hard. Bring a pillow.
Don't see it if You get bored by readings. Not everything that Poe wrote was brilliant, as proven by these selections of the good and the not so good.
See it if Staged readings of selected Edgar Allan Poe stories, the actors were excellent but I found the stories too similar & therefore repetitive.
Don't see it if While I knew what I was getting into, I missed having visuals and sound effects to hold my interest; there were some, just not enough.
See it if you hate reading. You would be completely entertained just seeing a show in a church. Lots of people took photos before the show.
Don't see it if you could stand just reading the original stories. There is nothing to the lighting/sound. The acting is bland and amateurish. I left early.
See it if You love Poe and his stories and mystery.
Don't see it if You don't like issues dealing with death, dying or the mysterious.
See it if You must go to have fun
Don't see it if I can't say don't go if! It's amazing
"Standout performances by R. Patrick Alberty and Cory Boughton were particularly thrilling...The beautifully crafted work is directed by Frank Zilinyi and R. Patrick Alberty, who pull together Poe’s words with shrewd lighting, music, and sound effect choices delivered with impeccable timing...You will be enthralled and left breathless, unable to shake the intensity of the ghostly sensations long after the last candle has burned down to its wick."
