"Quoth the Raven, Nevermore"
The Gloucester County Historical Society features an October 10 performance by retired U.S. National Park Poe House Interpretive Ranger Helen McKenna-Uff in character as Edgar Allen Poe, bringing his macabre tales to life and sharing insights into his fascinating life.
McKenna-Uff was a Park Ranger long assigned to the Edgar Allen Poe National Historic Site in Philadelphia. She has been studying the author’s tortured life and gruesome works since her acting classes in high school, where she became “Poe-sessed” after memorizing “The Raven.”
A professional actress, she’s been performing the author’s spine-tingling tales on stage, radio and television since 1999.
The Oct. 10 Historical Society event will take place at 6:30 p.m. in the Woodbury Friends Meetinghouse at 124 North Broad Street in Woodbury. Light refreshments will be provided.
The massive, 310-year-old log-beam Friends Meeting House is a destination attraction in itself.>
