Shakespeare / Poe: A Night of Readings from the Dark Side

Delaware Shakespeare Festival returns to a world of specters and spirits this October with two performances of “Shakespeare/Poe: A Night of Readings from the Dark Side,” at Historic Odessa's Stone Stable.

Actors will read seasonally spooky selections from the plays of Shakespeare and the poems and short stories of Edgar Allan Poe. The weird sisters of Macbeth will meet again (whether or not the hurlyburly’s done) and the raven will certainly come knocking on the chamber door, but this year’s “Shakespeare/Poe” will also offer readings that have not appeared in previous installments of this popular autumn show.

Spooky Stories from Shakespeare and Poe

Performances will take place at 7pm on Friday, October 16 and Friday, October 23. Tickets are $18.50 and can be purchased at www.delshakes.org. For more information, call 302.415.3374.
