“A magical, musical celebration of the power of theatre. Every last member of the company is brilliant. [A] once-in-a-lifetime show. See it, hear it, celebrate it.” – TORONTO STAR
Edgar Lee Masters’ seminal poems of the dead are brought to vibrant life in this original musical adaptation. Spoon River’s long-deceased residents raise their voices in song to narrate their own epitaphs, telling of their lives, loves, losses, and hard-earned truths, in an immersive portrait of early 20th-century rural America.
