Sigh. I really wanted this to be good. The actor/writer duo of Katie Hartman and Nick Ryan have come all the way from New York City. This is clearly a labour of love for them. They’re young, smart, dedicated and talented, but their show just doesn’t work.
For me to explain what doesn’t work about this play, I need to first set the scene. This is a two hander, loosely based on the childhood and short stories of lauded writer Edgar Allan Poe. Sounds good...
