David Crawford, who earned international acclaim for playing Dr. Foster in George Romero's Dawn of the Dead, recently returned from earning rave reviews at the Fringe Festival with this one-man show. David wrote and performs this extraordinary bit of theatre. He is teaming up with his friend and former cast-mate Jon Hayden, a CMU alumnus performing as Poprishchin in Diary of a Madman (Gogol’s intense short story about the first recorded case of schizophrenia) at the New Hazlett Theater. This dynamic show is paired with Poe’s Last Night, an inventive imagining of Poe’s final hours on the streets of Baltimore, featuring Poe’s dark and mysterious stories and poems.
