House of<br />

"It was without a doubt one of the best<br />
we have ever attended! The music is<br />
always wonderful, but we so enjoyed<br />
Frank Oden."<br />
– Patron<br />
Frank Oden writes and performs lyrical<br />
concert programs merging original poetry,<br />
humour, education, and theatrical<br />
production values with a live symphonic<br />
performance. He began creating this<br />
unique form in collaboration on a series of<br />
Halloween concerts, resulting in the House<br />
of Halloween. Frank Oden's spooky<br />
Halloween poems are fun, funny and<br />
simply enchanting for even the youngest<br />
listeners. Oden performs with linguistic<br />
bravado; he is a verbal stunt man with a<br />
uniquely theatrical style – combining the<br />
power of a Shakespearean actor, the<br />
presence of a great magician and the<br />
physicality of a Warner Brothers cartoon.<br />
CELEBRATE HALLOWEEN!<br />
