In the haunted hamlet of Sleepy Hollow, where ghost stories pass for gospel, the superstitious schoolmaster Ichabod Crane sets his sights on Katrina Van Tassel — and on besting Brom Bones, the swaggering local hero who wants her too. As the harvest festival nears, the village trades tales of the Headless Horseman, a spectral soldier said to ride the moonlit roads seeking his missing head. John Heimbuch and Jon Ferguson's wildly theatrical adaptation hands the whole world to a nimble ensemble. After one fateful night, Ichabod rides home alone — into a chase Sleepy Hollow will whisper about for generations.
