Join author Carol Verburg in conversation on her latest book, The Theatrical Adventures of Edward Gorey: Rare Drawings, Scripts, and Stories. Edward Gorey (1925–2000) was a prodigious and original artist, beloved for his instantly recognizable style. But what many fans don’t know is that Edward Gorey was also a prolific theater artist. Edward Gorey’s designs for the Tony Award–winning Broadway production of Dracula were brilliantly inventive, and he devoted the last decade of his life to writing, designing, directing, and producing original theatrical works, from major productions to dozens of wildly creative “entertainments” on Cape Cod. Written by Edward Gorey’s friend and theater collaborator Carol Verburg, this deluxe hardcover volume showcases Gorey's abundant body of theatrical work, giving it the lavish, full‐color treatment it deserves. The book is filled with Gorey’s own scripts, behind‐the‐scenes anecdotes from collaborators, and over 200 images, including archival photos of productions and Gorey’s never‐before‐published sketches and finished illustrations of sets, costumes, props, posters, and more. About the Speaker Carol Verburg is an editor and writer. She collaborated with Edward Gorey on more than twenty theater productions on Cape Cod, and she is the author of the Edgar Rowdey mystery novels. She lives in San Francisco.
