Stories from Spoon River

Sometimes a show comes along that pushes the boundaries of what traditional theatre can look like.
The Hill - Stories from Spoon River is one such show. This immersive production invites audiences to follow the wandering minstrel known as Fiddler Jones on a lantern lit journey across historic Sleepy Hollow Cemetery and meet the ghosts of Spoon River.
 

“Each ghost is narrating their own epitaph,” playwright Cristina Noelle explains. “And those epitaphs are alternatively hilarious and heartbreaking.” 
 

Noelle, who adapted the script from the 1915 classic Spoon River Anthology by Edgar Lee Masters, knew early in the creative process that Sleepy Hollow Cemetery was the ideal location for the production. “We’re so fortunate to be returning to this gorgeous, rural cemetery. Being able to perform the show in situ, amid all the natural beauty of this setting, is a real gift.”
 

Last year’s debut production was met with glowing reviews and tickets sold out quickly. “We’ve been fortunate to have so many people come out and support us. The show seems to really resonate with audiences on an emotional level,” Noelle added. “It’s a special night of theatre.”
 

A special night of theatre that is shaping up to become a summer tradition in Sleepy Hollow!  
 

The Hill- Stories from Spoon River is presented as a six-night limited engagement.
