Ramesh Meyyappan, UK/Singapore
US Premiere

Edgar Allen Poe’s narrative style and explicit images serve as resources for Ramesh Meyyappan in this striking visual theatre interpretation of Baltimore’s favorite son. Ramesh explores primal fear, the inevitability of death, desperation, power, and paranoia in these beautifully crafted pieces. Ramesh’s adaptations go beyond literal translations of Poe’s writing forming an eclectic mix of visual and physical styles which reverberate in dark characters and sinister plots. Ramesh is storytelling in purely visual form.

Ramesh Meyyappan was a director, teacher, and actor with Dramaplus Arts in Singapore. Prior to finishing his degree at Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts in the Unikted Kingdon, he was Artistic Director of Singapore’s Hi! Theatre. Recently Ramesh completed a tour of his adaptation of Dario Fo’s Mistero Buffo which included America, Singapore, Austria, UK and Sweden. A versatile practitioner Ramesh has also presented workshops on visual theatre and its various forms.
