    Hillary DePiano masterfully intertwines the classic narrative of Edgar Allan Poe's "The Raven" with an inventive second act that gives voice to the spirit of Lenore. This act elevates the narrative, providing a fresh perspective and an emotional depth that enriches the original story.

    THE RAVEN / LENORE explore a possible rationale behind Edgar Allan Poe's poem The Raven. This inventive twist of the original gives a voice to the Lost Lenore and creates interesting conflict. Hillary DePiano blends the language of Poe's Poem with her own beautiful prose. What a fun play for stage or zoom!

    I saw a virtual production by The Rude Mechanicals in 2021, which did a great job of creating the physical space of the study and the spirit plane Lenore now occupies.

    HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    Absolutely brilliant piece, a wonderful adaptation that brings mew thoughts and ideas to the piece. DePiano is a talented writer and has masterfully created outstanding characters any performer would be lucky to be cast as.

    I absolutely love the flow of this play. I feel like I understand Poe's poem better as a result of it, and I know that it will be a hit with youth theatre. It provides a great example of how to work in the genre of adaptation and would make a wonderful playwriting assignment or an addition to an evening of short plays.
