Olney audiences were blown away in 2025, when we invited Synetic Theater to perform their award-winning, wordless version of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Now they’re back, but this time they’re tackling a story with classic American roots in the intimate confines of Olney Theatre Center’s 150-seat Theatre Lab. This adaptation of Sleepy Hollow pulls together all the elements that made Synetic famous: gothic horror, iconic characters and imagery, and an emphasis on the surreal. The production explores and deconstructs the ideas of legend and myth, illuminating the story of a terrifying and well-known villain in a way that only Synetic’s physical lexicon can.
