THE MIDNIGHT MATINEE "Valdemar" Starring Jennifer Rouse, J.R. Lyston, and Mark Redfield

THE MIDNIGHT MATINEE - "Valdemar" - Based On The Story By Poe (Ep 24-14) For more great audio visit: http://www.RedfieldArtsAudio.com and https://MarkRedfieldStudios.com Get "Valdemar" on Audible at: https://www.audible.com/pd/Valdemar-Audiobook/1645551199 “Valdemar“ stars the voice talents of Jennifer Rouse as “Elmira Valdemar”, J.R. Lyston as “Ernest Valdemar” and Mark Redfield as “Harlan Hurlock”. The production was written and directed by Mark Redfield, inspired by a story by Edgar Allan Poe. Original Music and Sound Design by Jennifer Rouse. Redfield takes his inspiration for the script from the Edgar Allan Poe short story “The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar”, and sets his story in a dreamlike urban city in the early 20th century. A world where the rich and pampered collide with the side-show carnival huckster and con-man. A world where the greedy and selfish fall victim to their own desires, with horrifying consequences. For no man, or woman, can truly escape death… Poe’s original story “The Facts in the Case of M. Valdemar”, from which this audio play is inspired, was published in 1845. A work of horror fiction, it is also something of a hoax, as the story was originally published without claiming it was fictional, and readers believed the events described, of a man called Valdemar mesmerized at the point of death and upon coming out of the trance, devolving into a puddle of putrification. It was published simultaneously in “The American Review” and “Broadway Journal”, December 1845. Many readers thought the events to be true, until Poe admitted otherwise in his “Marginalia”. Elizabeth Barrett Browning wrote to Poe to commend him on his talent for “making horrible improbabilities seem near and familiar”. The most well-known film adaptation appears in Roger Corman’s “Tales of Terror” (1962) starring Vincent Price and Basil Rathbone.

Before Edgar Poe - The Poet's Irish Heritage (Ep 24-2)

DON'T FORGET TO SUBSCRIBE! For more great audio visit: www.RedfieldArtsAudio.com THE POE FAMILY COMES FROM IRELAND! It begins, as far back as can be reliably traced, to Edgar’s great-great-grandfather David Poe in the town of Dring, County Cavan, Ireland, about 75 miles north of Dublin. (There are going to be a few “Davids” in our brief re-cap, so get your score cards ready!) There is no record of David Poe’s birth, only of his death in 1742. He was a farmer and overseer of Parrish roads in Kidallan in County Cavan. It is possible (but there is no definite proof) that he was descended from the Dr. Leonard Poe who was the official physician for King James I and later for King Charles I. David Poe, who married a woman named Sarah, gave birth to a son called John (date unknown). John Poe (Edgar’s great-grandfather) married Jane McBride and immigrated to America sometime around 1749 or 1750. They lived briefly in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and then moved and settled in Baltimore, Maryland. David and Jane had 10 children. Their son David (Edgar’s grandfather—still with me?) was born in either 1742 or 1743 before they came to America. Featuring poetry read by Mark Redfield by: - Edgar Allan Poe - Samuel Beckett - Jane Wilde - William Butler Yeats "Auld Lang Syne" performed by Jennifer Rouse Original content © Mark Redfield Studios

J. R. Lyston (2 October 1932- 8 August 2023) & Mark Redfield - Two Theatre Kids Kibitzing (Ep 23-15)

This conversation with the late J. R. Lyston and me was totally unplanned. Completely impromptu. We had just recorded a Sherlock Holmes audio drama, and I suggested that we do an interview to talk about our many years of collaborating and acting together. At the time of this recording, we’d worked together for 36 years. Well…we rambled. Went down rabbit holes. Talked over and interrupted each other… (J. R. wasn’t very good about using his hearing aids in his last years…) And so, now, in 2023, it’s been about 40 years of working together. In plays, films, and audio drama. J. R. Lyston passed away on 8 August 2023. I’ve felt the loss heavily. I love him, and loved working with him dearly. We present this unpublished “interview” as a tribute to J. R. and a way for me to share his own story, his journey in the theatre arts, and as a teacher. I’m not sure what folks will get from listening to the two of us babble and kibbutz, but for Baltimore theatre folk, many of the names and places should ring familiar bells. I miss J.R. and I know I’ll miss him for the rest of what’s left in my life. When I think about future audio projects, I will still think to call him up and ask him to the studio. So many characters left to do… I thank you all who listen to us…two theatre kids kibitzing. - Mark Redfield September 2023 John R. Lyston OCTOBER 2, 1932 – AUGUST 8, 2023 Photo: a publicity photo of Mark Redfield as Milo Tindle and J. R.
