A BIG THANK YOU TO MAT LAGEMAN for a fabulous performance last night of "The Raven". You really channeled Poe perfectly! Your surprise encore of Edward Gorey's "The Wuggly Ump was awesome as well!

And THANK YOU ALSO TO OUR AUDIENCE - it was so great to have you all here. And thank you to everyone who helped make the night such a success.

We are happy to announce that Mat will be performing
"The Raven" again next year!
