Edgar Allan Poe Double Header

Created & Performed by Livy Scanlon*
Presented in partnership with The Hanover Theatre Repertory

An imaginative one-person retelling of
The Tell-Tale Heart and The Cask of Amontillado

At turns dark and darkly funny, this 60-minute solo show is staged as a séance, inviting audiences to conjure two of Poe’s most notorious narrators.

In The Tell-Tale Heart, a nervous caregiver is driven to madness by an irrational obsession. In The Cask of Amontillado, the aggrieved Montresor lures his rival Fortunato to an untimely fate.

Created and performed by Livy Scanlon. The Edgar Allan Poe Double Header runs at Gloucester Stage from October 24th-26th and at The Hanover Theatre Repertory in Worcester, MA from October 29th-Nov 1st.

1 hour, no intermission – best for adults and ages 13+. Schools interested in Student Matinees should email Natascha Tretter bmF0YXNjaGEgfCBnbG91Y2VzdGVyc3RhZ2UgISBjb20=
