------------
In the late summer of 1892, Lizzie Borden was accused of murdering her father and stepmother with an axe. Testimonies were muddled, evidence was incomplete, and Lizzie was acquitted. LIZZIE delves into the mysterious mind of Lizzie Borden and speculates on the motivations she may have had: loss of inheritance, history of sexual abuse, overwhelming oppression ,and madness. By her side is her older sister Emma, maid Bridget, and neighbor Alice. Together, the four women create a punk rock score to tell the story of why Lizzie Borden took an axe and gave her mother 40 whacks, and why when she saw what she had done, gave her father 41.
À la fin de l'été 1892, Lizzie Borden est accusée du meurtre de son père et de sa belle-mère avec une hache. Les témoignages étaient confus, les preuves étaient incomplètes et Lizzie a été acquittée. LIZZIE plonge dans l'esprit mystérieux de Lizzie Borden et spécule sur les motivations qu'elle a pu avoir : perte d'héritage, antécédents d'abus sexuels, oppression écrasante et folie. À ses côtés se trouvent sa sœur aînée Emma, la femme de chambre Bridget et la voisine Alice. Ensemble, les quatre femmes créent une partition punk rock pour raconter l'histoire de pourquoi Lizzie Borden a pris une hache et a donné 40 coups à sa mère, et pourquoi quand elle a vu ce qu'elle avait fait, elle en a donné 41 à son père.

Carrie: The Musical
Book: Lawrence D. Cohen, Music and Lyrics: Michael Gore and Dean Pitchford
Based on the novel by Stephen King
May, 2022 at MainLine Theatre
In this revamped, contemporary version of the famous (and infamous) 1988 production, based on the novel by Stephen King, Carrie White is a teenage outcast who longs to fit in. At school, she is bullied by the popular crowd, and virtually invisible to everyone else. At home, she's dominated by her loving, but cruelly controlling, religious fanatic mother. What none of them know is that Carrie's just discovered she's got a special power, and if pushed too far, she's not afraid to use it.

Highlights from CHESS: In Concert
With a powerful score blending pop, rock, and operetta, the cult musical Chess tells the story of two rival chess masters whose antagonism mirrors that of their respective countries. Against the backdrop of the Cold War, American chess champion Freddie Trumper faces Soviet challenger Anatoly Sergievsky for the world title — and the affections of Freddie’s lover and second, Florence Vassy, a Hungarian-born former refugee torn between the two sides. The songs by ABBA’s Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus with lyrics by Tim Rice include the top-ten dance hit “One Night in Bangkok,” the classic duet “I Know Him So Well,” and the stirring “Anthem.”
