Actor Neill Hartley presents an interactive one-man interpretation of Washington Irving's story about the headless horseman and Ichabod Crane set in the sleepy world of Tarrytown, New York.
Neill Hartley brings an all new adaptation of this horror story written by Washington Irving. The interactive one-man interpretation of the story of the headless horseman draws the audience into the schoolmaster’s world in sleepy Tarry Town. The program, followed by discussion about this 19th century author who also wrote Rip Van Winkle, ends with a dramatic reading of the story’s postscript.
