PHANTASMAGORIA XVI: “Hauntingly Whimsical Tales”

Celebrating 100 Years of Author and Artist

EDWARD GOREY

 Join the members of Phantasmagoria as they take a very special journey through the tales of iconic Artist and Author Edward Gorey in celebration of his 100^th Birthday Year!

Phantasmagoria’s signature blend of Evocative Storytelling, Phantastical Dance, Puppetry, Projections, Original Music and MORE will bring to life on stage the humorous, mischievous, mysterious, tragic, ironic, and hauntingly delightful visions of  Gorey’s distinctive “eerie yet whimsical worlds” * that have charmed readers for decades since they were first published.

From the tragedy of “The Gilded Bat” to the horrified exclamations of anyone who comes into the presence of “The Beastly Baby”. . .and from the frolicsome yet dangerous antics of “The Wuggly Ump” to the humorously ghastly deaths of “The Gashlycrumb Tinies” and SO many more richly crafted tales, Phantasmagoria and its audiences will relish in the works of this prolific visionary!

“Edward Gorey’s extraordinary imagination continues to captivate and inspire audiences worldwide. Renowned for his intricate pen-and-ink drawings, clever storytelling, and a distinctive blend of elegance and playful whimsy, he left an indelible mark on the worlds of art, literature, and design.” – www.EdwardGorey.org

The perfect way to celebrate the 2025 Halloween season!
