OGDENSBURG -- St. John’s Conservatory Theater, now in their fourth season, present the all-singing, all-dancing musical comedy “Kreepy Hollow” for a one week run at the OFA Auditorium in Ogdensburg, NY. 

Based on Washington Irving's classic short story “Sleepy Hollow” about a headless horseman rising from the dead, this production opens Thursday, Oct. 26, and runs through the weekend Oct. 29, with matinees planned for Saturday and Sunday.

The musical is set in the 1860’s along the St. Lawrence River, when the first appointed female teacher, Miss Ichaboda Krane (Angela Conzone Dwyer), takes over the ghostly schoolroom built on-top of a sacred Iroquois burial ground. With a classroom filled with eclectic children, her “eye” on Bartholomeus Van Tassel (Christopher Dwyer), a few unexpected guests, and a jealous local woman Electra Van Brunt (Shelly Murdock) watching her every move, Miss Ichaboda Krane’s Halloween celebration turns into a most haunting affair.

Narrated by Diedrich Knickerbocker (Mr. O’Donnell) and the macabre Hobb Sisters, “Kreepy Hollow” tells the tale of Ichaboda Krane’s encounter with all things that go bump in the night as the dreadful Headless Horseman rides again.

Starring performers from Ogdensburg, Huevelton, Morristown, Watertown and Lisbon, “Kreepy Hollow” stars Angela Conzone Dwyer as Ichaboda Krane, Christopher Dwyer as Bartholomeus Van tassel, Shelly Murdock as Electra Van Brunt, and Tessa Harper as Eurella The Gray Witch.
