About the event

Performing Poe
This one’s not to be missed!

ONE NIGHT ONLY: Two award-winning experts in the Poe theatre world share their insights on presenting Poe's work onstage and for broadcast.

Alex Zavistovich, award-winning Artistic Director of The National Edgar Allan Poe Theatre

Stephen Smith of Threedumb Theater, and Producer of the award-winning “One Man Poe”

An evening of live readings of Poe's lesser known stories and poems (and his more popular work), with insights of how and why they present Poe's work as live performance.

Stephen Smith reads “The Business Man”

Alex Zavistovich reads “Raising the Wind: Diddling Considered as One of the Exact Sciences”

Both actors together read “The Facts of the Case of M. Valdemar”

PLUS: A “Raven-Off,” where each actor presents their own version of the famous poem.

WITH: A discussion and audience talkback on staging these and other Poe works.

A fascinating glimpse into the director’s brain.
