The Ancient Mariner"By Samuel ColeridgeContinues  this weekend at Makeshift Theater in AkronFeaturingGeoffrey DarlingRunning Saturdays and SundaysAugust 10th and 11thAll shows are at 2:00 p.m..Tickets are $5 available at the door or online at https://www.makeshiftakron.org/events
Makeshift Theatre is located at 833 Carroll Street 
The production is based on the 1798 poem, “The Rime of the Ancient Mariner” by Samuel Coleridge. Canal Fulton resident Geoffrey Darling will direct and perform the play as a rehearsed reading. Darling’s wife, Rose Darling, will read the role of the writer, he said.
“I have been performing ‘The Ancient Mariner’ since 1986,” Darling, 75, said. “Now being able to share the reading with someone else on stage makes the story more clear and clarifies the narrative.”
The 40-minute production details the experiences of a sailor who has returned from a long voyage. The mariner stops a man who is on his way to a wedding to share the story of how he killed an albatross while at sea and the spiritual reckoning that followed. The poem examines themes of sin and redemption and is intertwined with supernatural agents.
