Recipe for the Macabre:

Start with Edgar Allan Poe - the beloved master of poetry, short stories, and tales of mystery and the macabre. Dissect and remix.  Mix with Theatre of Yugen's signature physicality, voices, words, ideas, bodies, a dash of Noh and Kyogen and PUPPETS.  Stir in a splash of contemporary relevance, with good old-fashioned irreverence. Bake at a macabre 666 degree heat for an hour and a half. Devised Defiance is a dish best served cold.

Edgar Allan Poe favorite Poems and Stories presented include:

The Bells; Telltale Heart; Annabelle Lee; The Raven; Fall of the House of Usher, and many more.

Featuring:

Ella Cooley, Alan Coyne, Shannon R. Davis, Steven Flores, Nick Ishimaru, and Jammin Jolo.
