Pegasus

Welcome from our Artistic Directors

“American Gothic: Works by E.A. Poe”
Conceived and directed by Mark Gregory.
Performed by Mark Gregory, Arnold House, Scott Kersnar and Jacquelyn Wells.
From the pen of America’s southern antebellum master of terror and suspense comes an evening of theater you won’t want to miss. The dark and nightmarish world of Edgar Allan Poe comes to life in word-for-word dramatizations of The Masque of the Red Death, The Cask of Amontillado, and The Tell-Tale Heart.
Poe’s compact short stories make for compelling theater in their own right, slowly building suspense out of our inborn fears.
The Pegasus production conveys that dark dreamscape, setting the stage for and fully capturing the mood of stories about our inability to escape death, the horror of being buried alive, and of the tortured mind of a man gone mad. You will enter Poe’s world of the strange, the unusual and the bizarre, where “Darkness and Decay and the Red Death” hold “illimitable dominion over all.”
Some of Poe’s best-known poems are interwoven among the stories, including “The Raven,”Annabel Lee,” and “The Bells.” The rich musicality of his verse is best appreciated when heard aloud, and the poems selected are companion pieces to the themes of the short stories.
The Gala performance of “American Gothic” will take place on Halloween, Friday, October 31, and the audience is encouraged to enhance the experience by coming in funereal attire. Korbel champagne and appetizers will be served, and admission to the Gala is $35.
The play runs through November 15. Please go to our Box Office Page for specific dates, times and ticket prices.
