Ashley Rogers’ SOUNDS OF MADNESS captures the tintinnabulation that musically swells throughout Edgar Allan Poe’s canon.  With commanding imagery, nicely woven dialogue, and a great focus on sound and synesthesia found in Poe’s work, this play goes beyond the flesh to the beating heart of the stories and poems we have all come to adore.
