“Enormously impressive… The House of Edgar is no mere pastiche or revue – it has a compelling plot, courtesy of writer Thomas F. Arnold.”
The Scotsman

How far would you go to protect your legacy?

Edgar Allan Poe is dead.

As his rival, Rufus Griswold, seizes control of his estate, echoes of past love and loss emerge. With Edgar’s reputation ruined and legacy crumbling, his work is all that remains. Inside these walls, are his stories simply marks on a page, or something else entirely?

The House of Edgar is a thrilling original musical inspired by some of Poe’s darkest stories, weaving them into a mysterious new tale. From Annabel Lee and The Raven, to The Tell-Tale Heart and The Fall of the House of Usher a new story is uncovered.

“A wonderfully atmospheric new musical, which combines the real and fictionalised lives of Poe and Griswold with some of Poe’s most famous works.”
