An Evening with Edgar Allan Poe

Edgar Allan Poe: The Poet's Journey

Set in an 1849 literary salon during the last months of his life, Poe recites from his work and shares his views on the state of American literature as he tries to persuade listeners to subscribe to a new magazine he has created, The Stylus.

" . . . Tim Hoban's delivery is polished . . . he holds the stage magnificently, and the audience is given a genuine glint of Poe's soul." -- Review from The Complete Guide to the Edinburgh Festival (Edinburgh, Scotland)

Written by Northwest playwright Bryan Willis and starring Tim Hoban, this popular one-hour show brings Poe's life and obsessions to your stage. For more information, e-mail: tjhoban@wamail.net
