"'Night Chills' was performed as a final project in my advanced drama class. I was a tad nervous about performing a full-length production but my actors rose to the occasion and put on a wonderful show. They all loved the script and had fun creating the Poe atmosphere with lighting and sound effects. Having the narration tied them all together in a fun way and gave another role to a deserving student." -- R.H., Madison High School, Rexburg, ID

Night Chills
"This is a great show, totally customizable to your needs. Easy set changes and costuming. Great for advanced and beginning students. The audience loved it! Very cool and creepy show, and they enjoyed the story adaptations." -- Endeavour Middle School, Lancaster, CA

Flexible script for a small or large cast
The five mini-scripts within the text offer a great degree of flexibility. We did "Tell-Tale Heart," "Cask of Amontillado" and "Murders in the Rue Morgue" with a cast of seven. The script is dark enough to capture the feel of Poe without being graphic. The author also added a number of female roles which are not always present in Poe's stories. My cast and audience enjoyed the performance. It is, I would say, appropriate for an audience ages 8-10 up.
