The rock retelling of the bloodcurdling American legend! Tune in to the visceral pulse of raw emotion! Welcome to LIZZIE, the fresh-as-blood “rock concert” retelling of a chilling saga that seared its mark onto American folklore. A sweltering summer in 1892 delivers a jolt that shakes the country to its core - Andrew Borden and his wife meet a grisly end, with their own flesh and blood, Lizzie Borden, standing accused of the unthinkable. This tempestuous tale of wrath, treachery, and horror is narrated through a live rock n’ roll concert performance, with a thunderous score that rouses your spirit, sends your heart pounding, and leaves you on the edge of your seat. Performed by a band of fierce, fiery, all-female rock vocalists, this production revisits history, uncovering the layers of one of America's most tantalizingly terrifying events. Journey through the feverish days leading up to the bloodcurdling act and the resulting uproar of Lizzie's trial that sparked a timeless legend. LIZZIE is a storm of a musical that encapsulates the thrill of a murder mystery, the electrifying energy of a rock concert, and the raw power of an all-woman ensemble.
