Just in time for Halloween, Creative Mechanics presents Fall of the House of Usher, by Steven Berkoff, adapted from the novella by Edgar Allan Poe.
In Steven Berkoff’s sensuous, experimental adaptation of the Poe classic, the horror in Poe’s psychological thrilled becomes physical and terrifying. The Usher twins, Roderick and Madeline, carry the tormented history of their cursed family name inside the macabre walls of the House of Usher. As their incestuous relationship sinks them deeper into madness, they employ the help of Roderick’s estranged friend Edgar to alleviate their pain. Edgar, however, is only drawn deep into their nightmare. When Madeline dies, the two men must bury her in the dank family crypt, deep below the family manse. There’s only one problem…Madeline is still alive.
There will be special Halloween late night performances on Friday and Saturday, October 29th and 30th at 11 PM!
