The Grand Valley History Players present Poe’s Poisoned Pen, an immersive theatrical experience that peels back the ink-stained layers of more...0 mystery surrounding the life and death of Edgar Allen Poe.

Set in the literary salons of the 1800s, the event blends historical storytelling with audience Q&A, offering a rare chance to engage directly with the performers and their research. Expect gothic intrigue, poetic rivalry, and a few ghostly echoes from beyond the grave. Doors open at 1:45 pm, show at 2 pm. Tickets for the show on October 25 and November 1 are available online at the Museums of Western Colorado’s website; $10.00 for adults and $5.00 for students.
