Nevermore – The Imaginary Life and Mysterious Death of Edgar Allan Poe is a unique and wildly theatrical musical play combining haunting music and poetic storytelling to tell the fascinating and moving life story of iconic American writer Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849). Poe struggled with tragedy and addiction, poverty and loss, yet produced some of the world’s most original, visionary and enduring literature before dying in unexplained circumstances at the age of 40. At once gorgeous and grotesque, Nevermore blurs the line between fact and fiction, exploring the events that shaped Poe’s character and career and giving powerful expression to Poe’s words “all that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream.” Performances will take place outdoors in the Staten Island Playhouse at Empire Outlets on Staten Island, right next to the ferry terminal, on the following dates: Friday, October 16 at 8:00pm Saturday, October 17 at 8:00pm Sunday, October 18 at 2:00pm Friday, October 23 at 8:00pm Saturday, October 24 at 8:00pm Sunday, October 25 at 2:00pm Auditions will take place in person at Snug Harbor, Building G, on Sunday, August 2nd, 11:00am to 4:00pm with callbacks on Monday, August 3rd at 6:00pm.
