Usher, adapted by John Sousanis from the short story by Edgar Allan Poe

Usher is an adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe’s masterful tale of haunted madness, The Fall of the House of Usher. Written by celebrated Michigan author John Sousanis, Usher explores the decaying home of a once-prosperous family. Roderick and Madeline are the last of the legendary Usher clan, and have invited a long-absent friend to their macabre mansion. Happy reunions quickly take a dark turn as familial horrors both real and imagined rise up to claim the last of the line. Will the visitor be able to save his beloved friends from the encroaching darkness, or are the Ushers and their house destined to fall? Usher performs at Cahoots Event Center in Ann Arbor throughout the month of October.
Starring: Brittany Battell, David Collins, and Jonathan Davidson. Directed by Julia Garlotte.
