SUMMARY:One Man Poe
DESCRIPTION:Renowned as the ‘Godfather of Gothic Horror’\, Edgar Allan Poe was a pioneer in establishing the horror genre. Although his works are nearly 200 years old\, Poe’s stories have stood the test of time and have inspired a countless number of horror writers. Using Poe’s original text from the 1840s\, award-winning storyteller Stephen Smith faithfully brings to life four timeless tales live on stage: \nThe Tell-Tale Heart is an insight into the mind of a madman\, convincing us he is sane.\nThe Pit and the Pendulum follows a prisoner of the dreaded Spanish Inquisition\, undergoing various mental and physical tortures.\nThe Black Cat documents an alcoholic confessing his heinous crimes on the eve of his death.\nThe Raven is the poem that made Poe famous – a mysterious midnight visit from an ominous talking raven. \nWinner of The Derek Award for ‘Best Overall Show’ at Edinburgh Fringe 2025\, One Man Poe is produced by four-time OFFIE Award-winning theatre company Threedumb Theatre\, bringing Poe’s work to life as never before. \nPraise for this production:\n“Captivating… I could not have been more wowed by this ‘marathon of the macabre’” ★★★★★ The National Scot\n“Powerfully moving… This show quite literally took my breath away… Unmissable!” ★★★★★ Everything Theatre\n“A compelling and repelling experience” ★★★★★ MyTheatreMates\n“Edgar Allan Poe himself would love this powerful performance” ★★★★★ The Derek Awards\n“Awe-inspiring… An incredibly gripping and enthralling evening” ★★★★★ North West End\n“The definitive Fringe interpretation of these already much-loved works” ★★★★★ The Wee Review\n“A captivating night of terror\, guilt\, grief and murder most foul… A must-see” ★★★★★ Broadway Baby \nAge Guide 12+ \nTickets £15 \n*Evening multi-buy deal available*
