“It was without a doubt one of the best we have ever attended! The music is always wonderful, but we so enjoyed Frank Oden.”
- Patron

Frank Oden writes and performs lyrical concert programs merging original poetry, humour, education, and theatrical production values with a live symphonic performance. He began creating this unique form in collaboration on a series of Halloween concerts, resulting in the House of Halloween. Frank Oden’s spooky Halloween poems are fun, funny and simply enchanting for even the youngest listeners. Oden performs with linguistic bravado; he is a verbal stunt man with auniquely theatrical style – combining the power of a Shakespearean actor, the presence of a great magician and the physicality of a Warner Brothers cartoon.
