Horror Stories: Halloween Theater with Live Music September 30, 2026 Ru-Lee Weller Passman Local actors perform horror stories from great authors of the past in a one-hour musical performance on Oct. 24th and 30th at 6 p.m. A new work of theater fusing music, dancing, and witches of William Shakespeare’s Macbeth and Henry Purcell’s Sorceresses from Dido and Anneas. In this staged theater event, the historic strings of Ensemble Gothic join five performers who enact a stunning series of poetry, choreography and tableaux vivants, filled with iconography taken directly from Renaissance ideology, to superimpose the summoning of three famous witches onto the most chilling musical selections. The result will yield thrilling connections to the witches of William Shakespeare’s Macbeth and Henry Purcell’s Sorceresses from Dido and Anneas as each character emerges from the shadows.
