Sleepy Hollow, A Folk Musical

Filament Theatre Ensemble

Sleepy Hollow, the Washington Irving short story about a town bewitched by fear, has become a staple of American mythology. This wold-premiere musical presented by the Filament Theatre Ensemble weaves together the classic story of Ichabod Crane and the Headless Horseman with ghost stories from the Salem Witch Trials, creating a stunning folk musical adaptation complete with dance, storytelling, and an ensemble of nine actor/musicians who play instruments ranging from the mandolin to the washtub bass.
Adapted and Composed by Tyler Beattie.

This production is suitable for everyone ages 8 + and anyone who enjoys a good spooky story.

I went to the show in February. Overall, I thought it was a good show. I've seen better, but I've seen MUCH worse. LOVED Brom Bones--very witty touch! Reminds me of Denny Crane on Boston Legal. The structure also reminded me of Sweeney Todd. Cool mix of music styles--very unique. Keep up the good work!
