What to expect at Chapter Two of the Edgar Allan Poe Speakeasy
Infused with powerful themes of love, loss, and regret, Poe’s legendary tales explore dark yet intriguing aspects of the human psyche. Within the Edgar Allan Poe Speakeasy, Poe historians will bring four new stories to life, allowing the audience to explore the fascinating worlds of Edgar Allan Poe once more. The chilling tales feature The Cask of Amontillado, Annabel Lee, The Pit and the Pendulum, and The Fall of the House of Usher.
The second chapter of the speakeasy has taken up residence at Verdi Club, a 100+ year-old historic social club. For a limited time, the space will be adorned with dimly lit lanterns, flickering candles, and Gothic-inspired decor. Of course, libations are also a key component of the experience. Guests can anticipate creative cocktails such as the Lover’s Lament, a bittersweet blend of bourbon, lemonade, and hibiscus, and the Montresor’s Revenge, a mixture of rich amontillado and fresh orange juice.
Edgar Allan Poe’s legacy will continue to live on at this engaging 90-minute show in San Francisco. Tickets start at $55 and are available to those ages 21 and up. It is not necessary to have attended the first rendition of the Edgar Allan Poe Speakeasy to enjoy Chapter Two!
