Performance dated

This is one of my favorite American stories. I enjoyed the performance as it reminded me of an old radio show. Multiple performers and sound effects were part of the performance. I would guess this performance to be at least 50 years old, which has its own bit of nostalgia.

It is evocative and true to the mood of the Washington Irving Classic

What about The St. Charles Players’s performance did you like?

I enjoyed the casting and the interlay between characters. Ichabod's character is especially well done.

Don't lose your head...

I've heard many versions of the legend of sleepy hollow over the years, but this particular version with excellent actors, very atmospheric music, and a gale of ghost stories within the classic tale, perfectly captures the feel of the original Washington Ircing story. It comes highly recommended to any fan of the original tale or anyone that simply wants to feel their blood run cold.

terrible quality

Voices sound sped up even though my settings are normal. Audible won’t allow me to return the title.
