Eddie Allan Poe: Don't miss the final weekend of Creative Cauldron's brand new, kid-friendly production about the oddball students at the Eddie Allan Poe Academy, who are working hard to master their mysterious and macabre storytelling techniques, just like the great master himself. But their headmaster informs them that the Academy's funding is in jeopardy, and they must try to put a "normal" spin on Poe's great classics if they are to remain open.
