WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
"All that we see is but a dream within a dream." So begins this deliciously dark dreamscape about literary sensation and master of the macabre, Edgar Allan Poe. Bizarrely beautiful and wonderfully witty, Nevermore uses haunting song, poetic storytelling and surreal imagery to explore the events that shaped Poe's career and ignited his lifelong battle with "visions dark and sinister."

Theatergoers soon learn of the twists and turns of Poe's life, where both childhood and adulthood prove equally cruel to the man (brought movingly to life by Scott Shpeley). And in Christenson's v[...]
