Literary Monsters: Spooky Stories! Shadow Puppets! Live Music!
Thu Oct 15 · 6:00pm / Sat Oct 24 · 12:00pm
Shadow, Sound, Spectacle’s Literary Monsters combines original live music, shadow puppetry, video projection and gothic storytelling drawn from Poe, Mary Shelley, Washington Irving, Emily Dickinson, Bram Stoker and Anne Rice, recasting Frankenstein’s creature, Poe’s raven and the Headless Horseman as figures of resistance, transformation and queer identity. The project is led by Northampton singer-songwriter Jess Martin, Boston puppeteer Amy West and musician and visual artist Abby Hanna.
