PHANTASMAGORIA XVI: “Hauntingly Whimsical Tales”

Celebrating 100 Years of Author and Artist EDWARD GOREY

This Halloween season, join the mesmerizing troupe of Phantasmagoria as they delve into the hauntingly whimsical world of legendary artist and author Edward Gorey in celebration of his 100th birthday year.

With its signature blend of evocative storytelling, fantastical dance, puppetry, projections, original music, and more, Phantasmagoria brings Gorey’s mischievous, macabre, and delightfully eerie tales to life on stage. From the surreal horrors of The Evil Garden to the ghastly humor of The Gashlycrumb Tinies, audiences will revel in a theatrical tapestry inspired by one of the most distinctive imaginations of the 20th century.

Fully licensed by the Edward Gorey Charitable Trust, this production pays tribute to an icon whose intricate illustrations and ironic wit continue to enchant audiences worldwide.
