On Halloween weekend come enjoy a free staged reading of “Evermore,” a smart, funny, dark and dramatic exploration of the real life – and stormy – relationship between Edgar Allan Poe and his editor, Dr. Rufus Wilmot Griswold, as well as Poe’s relationships with his wife, Virginia (Sissy), and his mother-in-law, Mariah (Muddy).

“Evermore” is written by Gary Wright, directed by Cris Cassell. The play includes readings from Poe’s The Raven and The Telltale Heart, and his poem, Annabel Lee.
