Nevermore Spirits and Ghosts at the Maritime Museum

October 20, 2010

Urban Arts Productions and the Maritime Museum of British Columbia invite you to embark on a dark, mysterious journey into the life of American poet Edgar Allan Poe. The imaginative Canadian premiere musical Nevermore uses Poe's poetry and short stories as a base for the plot and his shifting obsessions with the women in his life as a catalyst. With hauntingly beautiful melodies, Nevermore breathes new life into Poe's work and explores a twisted true-life tale as bizarre as his classic stories of the macabre.

It is a bold, exciting musical that breaks boundaries, challenges audiences, and brings Poe's passion and obsessions to life in a most extraordinary way. Characters come to life and interact in alarming ways - as people, voices, ghosts, and demons.

Nevermore runs Thursdays through Saturdays from October 21st - October 30th, 2010 staged 'in the round' in the Historic Victorian Courtroom at the Maritime Museum of British Columbia in Bastion Square.

Tickets for this dark musical are available at the door beginning one hour prior to performance for $15.00. Performance starts at 8:00pm and runs for 90 minutes. Limited reserved advanced tickets are available by contacting info at urbanartsproductions.com<mailto:info at urbanartsproductions.com> for $20.00. Nevermore is presented with permission through and all materials provided by Theatrical Rights Worldwide (TRW). Originally produced by Signature Theatre, Arlington Virginia.

Also, mark your calendars for the Museum's annual Ghost Tours! Come hear the true chilling tales of ghostly sightings and sounds at the Maritime Museum of BC. You may even catch a glimpse of Judge Begbie, the infamous "Hanging Judge" as it is said that he still wanders the third floor keeping vigilant watch over his courtroom.

Admission is $15.00 and the tour begins at 5pm in the Museum's Gift Shop. Please call 250-385-4222 ext. 113 for more information. See our website at www.mmbc.bc.ca for all upcoming events at the Maritime Museum of BC.
