A Dream within a Dream

Drift off into delirium and hope, against hope, that you wake. This poem laments tragic loss and grapples with the relentless passing of time.

Thank you for joining us for an episode of RavenMad, a Cygnet & Swan production. ‘A Dream within a Dream’ was originally written by Edgar Allan Poe. This adaptation was directed by Alexandra Meerbach with sound design by Elizabeth Bradford and music by Marli van der Bijl.

This episode features the voice of Marli van der Bijl.
