Edgar Allan Poe: The Musical is coming to Charlotte for three nights only, and it’s not your standard stage production. Brought to you by the creators of the wildly popular Edgar Allan Poe Speakeasy, the show pulls you straight into Poe’s darkest imagination, guided by the ghost of the man himself.
The limited-time series is taking over The Palmer Building from June 11-13, blending sound, storytelling, and themed cocktails into an unmissable evening. Save your spot here!

What to expect at Edgar Allan Poe: The Musical
Edgar Allan Poe: The Musical is a theatrical performance that unites immersive storytelling and original songs. As the journey unfolds, characters from tales including The Tell-Tale Heart and The Raven will emerge from the shadows as eight of Poe’s most iconic works come to life.
The original songs are written and produced by Danny Elfman, the musical genius behind famed works like Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, and Corpse Bride. Elfman’s dark and whimsical style provides the perfect sonic backdrop for this atmospheric event.
Three cocktails are included in the 90-minute experience — each one crafted to complement the show itself, not just handed to you at the door. Prefer a mocktail? Non-alcoholic options are also available upon request!
Edgar Allan Poe: The Musical is kicking off its tour in 12 U.S. cities, and Charlotte is first on the list. Attendees are limited to those ages 21 and up, and tickets begin at $55. Given the show’s intimate, limited-time nature, seats are bound to sell out quickly.
