In the Asylum with Edgar Allan Poe

In the Asylum with Edgar Allan Poe

Royal George Theatre
1641 N. Halsted Chicago

Konow recreates Poe's most favored stories and poems from this perspective in a way that has never been done before, challenging madness versus sanity and begging the question: what truly defines madness and what is simply a different way of looking at life? These efforts lead the play into five highly theatrical, fantastical performances of terror and mystery, recreating the famous writer's finest stories: "The Raven," "Silence," "The Bells," "The Fall of the House of Usher" and "The Tell-Tale Heart."
