CARTOONARAMA: "STUART GORDON"

"STUART GORDON" (2010) by Mark Redfield. Acrylic on canvas panel. (16x20).

In this cartoon of director Stuart Gordon, he's flanked by muses H.P. Lovecraft and Edgar Allan Poe.

I'm very proud to have helped bring NEVERMORE, AN EVENING WITH EDGAR ALLAN POE to Baltimore and the East Coast after its successful run in Los Angeles last year. The one-man play stars Jeffrey Combs (who played Poe in the Masters of Horror program The Black Cat, also under Gordon's direction).

Gordon and I have been working to get NEVERMORE to Baltimore since August of 2009, originally as part of the October Poe funeral festivities. The pressure was taken off when the play's run was extended to mid-December at the Steve Allen Theater in LA, and I suggested that the play would be perfect as the centerpiece of the January, 2010 birthday celebration.

Tickets for the East Coast premiere of NEVERMORE in Baltimore can be obtained at www.poebicentennial.com

Plans for a limited tour are in the works.
