Edgar Allan Poe Scripts

I suggested using short stories of Edgar Allan Poe for our performance because we can really use the SL engine to immerse the audience. For example in "The Cask of Amontillado" the story ends with the protagonist taking his revenge on his rival by sealing him in a room in the catacombs by erecting a wall, as the author describes it: tier by tier. At this moment in the performance an enormous claustrophobic enclosure could appear around the actor and the audience to give the scene more immersion.
