With UPON A MIDNIGHT DREARY, we close out our 2025 season, and what an amazing show to close on!

There are some shows that just feel different; that touch your soul and your heart in a way that the experience never truly leaves you. That was UaMD. It was emotional and cathartic and everything that I as a director could have dreamt up and more. Those that were on stage and those behind the scenes made this ridiculously ambitious and stylized chaos into something beautiful, something profound. And to our incredible audience that came along on this journey and made it a fully sold out run, know that means everything to me as well. Simply saying thank you doesn't contain the gratitude in my heart for you all. But know I will hold these memories in my heart, forevermore.

And now we release this show into the aether...

Goodnight to DEATH.
Goodnight to JUDGEMENT.
Goodnight to THE HIGH PRIESTESS.
Goodnight to THE FOOL.
Goodnight to THE HIEROPHANT.
Goodnight to THE DEVIL.
Goodnight to THE TOWER.

And thank you to the and

"And Darkness and Decay and the Red Death held illimitable dominion over all"

Tonight is the closing night for the final show of the 2025!

One last time into the macabre! One last time into madness!
