About the "The Tell-Tale Heart"
A man insists he is sane. Yet his words unravel into obsession, paranoia, and madness. What begins as a struggle against supernatural terrors becomes a descent into guilt, where the steady beat of a phantom heart grows louder, louder, louder — until it consumes him entirely.
This adaptation of Poe’s iconic short story transforms psychological horror into a visceral micro-theatre experience. The audience is drawn inside the mind of the narrator, where shadows twist into voices and conscience takes on a terrifying rhythm. The Tell-Tale Heart is a study of human fragility, the thin line between reason and delirium, and the haunting persistence of guilt.
Prepare for a performance that is intimate, unsettling, and unforgettable, with a theatrical heartbeat that will echo long after the lights fade.
