In honor of the 200th Anniversary of Edgar Allen Poe's birth, the American Lyric Theater asked three composers and three librettists last year as part of The Composer Librettist Development Program what they believed Poe would be writing if he were alive today. Under the mentorship of librettist Michael Korie and Producing Artistic Director Lawrence Edelson, these six artists have been developing THE POE PROJECT, a trilogy of one-act psychological thrillers inspired by Poe's short stories. Thanks to a commissioning grant from the New York State Council on the Arts, along with additional support from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs and The ASCAP Foundation: Joseph and Rosalie Meyer Fund, American Lyric Theater has commissioned the completion of this exciting and haunting new trilogy.
