Dreadful Episodes is a hilarious and virtuosic theatrical collage adorned with live music and physical comedy, inspired by the illustrations of Edward Gorey, Victorian reverie, ill-fated romance, calamitous croquet and the dangers of windy cliffs.

These dark comedic vignettes include precocious children, a séance and other fancies that will transport you to a world where unseen dangers cause laughter. Join us this autumn when the veil is thin to enjoy all things witty and macabre.

Produced by Happenstance Theater.
