from the 2025 Atlanta Fringe Festival:

"So glad I got to see Tamil [Periasamy] as Edgar Allan Poe. Amazing, engaging performance ... a must-see show." 

- Benji Carr, ArtsATL

"They just nailed the style and the language! ... The performance was phenomenal. The writing and direction were very skilled ... I would watch what [this team] does next." 

- Eli Banks, Atlanta Fringe Festival reviewer

"Breathtaking and mesmerizing ... I've always said two of the hardest things to portray on stage are genuine fear and madness. Both are deftly portrayed by Tamil [Periasamy]."

- Daniel Guyton, Executive Director of Atlanta Dramatists

from the 2024 Atlanta Audio Fringe Festival (judges' reviews):

"A chilling story of a man falling to despair and neurosis, The Final Haunting of Edgar A. Poe is a strong one-man performance that breathes new life into the Old Master of Horror's works."

"I can't say enough about the ... performance. A lesser actor would not have been able to do justice to the writing."

"A very clever remix of Poe's life and works, the show captures the macabre sensibilities of the author's work. The pacing is well done, and the vocal performance a stand-out. I was impressed with how natural the show's delivery of Poe's text was."
