Princeton's Triangle Club Brings Back STARK RAVEN MAD 5/29, 5/30

By:

Princeton's famed Triangle Club newest musical Stark Raven Mad opened last fall to sold out houses and standing ovations! Now it's back for two encore performances on Friday and Saturday, May 29 and 30, at 8 pm.

With original music and lyrics by Princeton's best and brightest, this year's all-new musical-comedy extravaganza, pays homage to the American Master of the Macabre - Edgar Allan Poe.

Behind the scenes of a production presenting panoply of Poe, the properties master makes a petrifying pronouncement: that big black bird planned for Poe's premier poem has been purloined.

While the show-within-the-show must go on, our heroes are off on a song and dance filled escapade that's a real howl. Can romance survive the madcap race to replace the missing raven? Will Triangle's infamous all-guy kickline have Edgar Allan rolling in his crypt?

Only one thing is certain...as 3,000 fans have already learned, Stark Raven Mad, will have audiences laughing to death!

Tickets, priced at $22, $25, $28 and $30, with $10 students/kids, are available by calling the McCarter Ticket Office at (609) 258-2787; visiting online at www.mccarter.org (on the web use the STUTIX promo code) or in person at 91 University Place, Princeton.

The Princeton University Triangle Club has a rich history dating back to the days of F. Scott Fitzgerald and Booth Tarkington. Founded 118 years ago, Triangle Club is not only the oldest collegiate musical-comedy troupe in the nation, and is also the only college group that creates an original, student-written musical each year that is presented on national tour. While the jokes and tunes may change with the time and place, the spirit of Triangle - its unique blend of topical humor with collegiate irreverence and outright playfulness - always remains intact. It is this spirit that keep audiences coming back year after year to see Triangle's productions.
