The entire Poe play! (Patreon)

Our good pal Stelpa6 was asking to see the full version of the Edgar Allan Poe play I just did - so for anyone in the mood for some theater (and to see how massive the cast was), here it is, all six Poe stories... (the huge amount of costuming work and the complicated set transitions behind the video screen were wonderfully nuts, after my scene I spent the rest of the play moving chairs, sofas, doors-on-wheels, etc.)

Oh - and later on, I have a quick run-on as an "Original Keeper" in a tarred-and-feathered body shirt, who just escaped out of his cell. So after moving set pieces, I had to go change into that crazy thing - then change back into the Montresor costume for the bow at the very end. I don't think the video catches it, it's the chaos at the end of story #4, I run in screen-left and grab the lady in the red dress. One of the fun things about theater at this level - everybody does everything, there are no actors above the crew, we were all crew. Right after I walked off stage as Montresor, I had to set down the trowel, candle and wine bottle on the ground so I could pick up a big chair and quickly get it into place for story #2 (it's the chair the actress is sitting in when the camera pans left)...then pick them up again and carry them through the darkness back to the big prop table, weaving through the shadowy actors scooting the big platforms into place. Enjoy!
