The Tell-Tale Farce comes to Stagecoach Theatre Jan 12 through Feb 3. The show is an American farce by Don Zolidis and directed by Shelby Bay. Edgar Allan Poe is just coming off the success of 'The Raven'. So a wealthy dowager commissions him to write her a poem for a vast sum. Only problem: the man who shows up to write the poem isn't Poe, he's Poe's mailman, and he's on a quest to woo the dowager's spinster niece. This is a freewheeling, door-slamming farce with a touch of the macabre.

The story begins in 1958 and continues through 2011. 'It starts with my childhood and my views as I grew up. Then came the gift of my first son who was labeled autistic, and without speech.

Then the awareness I was given allowed me to see within my thoughts, and this is how I met my son at twenty-nine-and-a-half,' says the author.
