Spend a night with two masters of the macabre – William Shakespeare and Edgar Allan Poe. DSF actors will read bone-chilling selections from the plays of Shakespeare and the poems and short stories of Poe. In the fourth of year of this popular event, the selections will expand to include classic female authors such as Ann Radcliffe and Mary Shelley!
Dare to choose between three remarkable performance venues – the gothic halls of Rockwood Mansion, the grandeur of the Read House & Gardens in Old New Castle, or the colonial-era Stone Stable in Historic Odessa. But choose quickly! There are only 30 seats available for each performance. In 2014, multiple performances sold out.
