Lizzie BordenLizzie Borden
Synopsis:
Lizzie Borden took an axe. Gave her mother forty whacks. When she saw what she had done, gave her Father forty-one. In 1892 on a sweltering August day in a small New england town, 'somebody' brutally murdered a well-to-do elderly man and his second wife with an axe. Lizzie Borden, their young daughter, was named the primary suspect, arrested and tried. Without any witnesses to the hideous crime, she was acquitted and the murder remains unsolved to this day. Though Lizzie was ultimately declared innocent according to the law, her infamy lives on. the rock musical Lizzie Borden enters the horrifying Borden household to explore these notorious events through the eyes of Lizzie, her older sister Emma, Lizzie's close friend alice, and the housemaid Bridget. Through original songs performed by four fierce rockers accompanied by a live band, this driving musical reveals a tale of repression, patricide and two very bloody murders-and why Lizzie Borden may have taken up that axe.
