The EDGAR ALLAN POE Project
This is a friendly competition to raise funds, celebrate Halloween, and creatively challenge the community. Anyone and everyone are welcome and encouraged to participate.
Each participant can read from the work of Poe off of Project Gutenberg, from which they can create anything they’d like that is inspired by that chapter. It’s like a themed open mic!
Links to Poe's work:

Examples include, but are not limited to: recreating a scene, performing a monologue, doing a reading, designing a set, creating a costume, a make-up design, creating a piece of art, writing an original work inspired by the chapter, performing an interpretive dance, designing a store-front, floral design, etc.
Each piece should be documented by video and submitted to CPAC no later than Wednesday, October 23rd. Each submission will be shared to the CPAC audiences October 24th-Nov 9th. Votes will be tallied and winners announced on November 10th at the final performance of The Twisted Tales of Poe Radio Play.
All submissions will be shared via social media, and the audience will “vote” on their favorite piece by making a donation to CPAC. The piece with the highest donation total will win bragging rights and a goody basket from local artisans and business.
