Rehearsals have been underway for the Discovery College Secondary production, ‘Nightfall’. Written by Eric Coble, Nightfall is a collection of Edgar Allan Poe poems, which have been adapted for the stage. Through these dark stories with hints of comedy, the play explores themes of madness, death and the supernatural. Coble challenges the audience to question if Poe’s characters are mad, or if it is us – are we all just a little mad inside?
