Open Circle Theatre's NECRONOMICON

So, it's October again, my favorite time of year. And that means it's time again for this year's Lovecraft play from Open Circle Theatre. Most years they adapt a trilogy of Lovecraft stories, sometimes with an original Lovecraft-esque tale of their own or framing story thrown in.

This year's something different: not an adaptation of an actual Lovecraft story but a wholly new piece loosely inspired by HPL. In this it's more like a typical Lovecraft movie than one of their earlier plays.

For those who live close enough to the Seattle area that they might be able to see this, it opens on Friday October 10th (a week from tomorrow) and runs through Thursday November 15th -- essentially over six weekends. Here's the link:
