The definitive, deluxe art book about Edward Gorey's theater workâ from the iconic and Tony Award-winning Broadway production of Dracula to the wildly creative productions to which he devoted the last decade of his life.
Edward Gorey, known for his unsettling pen-and-ink drawings with a Victorian flair, wrote and illustrated such books as The Gashlycrumb Tinies , The Evil Garden, and The Haunted Tea-Cosy, and animated sequences of his work have introduced the PBS series Mystery! since 1980. He was also a devoted dramatist. His work on the 1977 Broadway revival of Dracula won him a Tony Award for Best Costume Design and a nomination for Best Scenic Design, and he spent the last thirteen years of his life writing and staging community theater in Cape Cod. Carol Verburg wrote her first novella at age eleven and won her first playwriting prize at thirteen. After staging her first rock musical in college, she worked as an academic editor, freelance author, boat builder, and the chief producer of her friend Edward Gorey’s theatrical entertainments on Cape Cod. Their long collaboration is chronicled in The Theatrical Adventures of Edward Gorey: Rare Drawings, Scripts, and Stories . It also inspired her play Spin, or Twilight of the Bohemians, and her neo-Golden Age Edgar Rowdey Cape Cod mystery novels Croaked, Zapped, and Shafted.
