Interview with Hunter from "Poe's Midnight Dreary"

    Time is running out fast - there are only three performances left for Poe’s Midnight Dreary, which is on stage this weekend at Huntington Middle School.

   Presented by First Stage Theatre (and kicking off the group’s 28th Season), the show is all about the horror author Edgar Allan Poe - his greatest works and his last days. 

   We’ve been sharing interviews with the cast, and up next is the talented Hunter Mullens:    

Q: What is the play Poe's Midnight Dreary about?

Hunter: Poe’s Midnight Dreary is about a deranged poet who relieves his most popular tales 

Q: Tell us about the part you play.

Hunter: I play Zachary. He is a character who is horrified by what his drunkard hands may do.

Q: Why did you want to be part of this play?

Hunter: I wanted to be a part of this play to gain experience and I enjoy dark poetry and theater. 

Q: What shows have you done before?

Hunter: I have done Xanadu Jr.

Q: If a kid reading this was thinking about trying out for a play, what would you tell them?

Hunter: To do their very best and be prepared.
