Summary "Dark and dazzling, bizarre and beautiful, Nevermore -- The Imaginary Life and Mysterious Death of Edgar Allan Poe is an unforgettable new musical play about one of the world's most famous and fascinating writers. Blending fact and fiction, the show's unique opera-like score uses poetic dialogue, eerie sound effects, underscored verse, and haunting songs, ranging from Weimar cabaret tunes to rock power ballads, to tell the story of Poe's tormented yet transcendent life." -- Editorial review (Amazon)
