Rage! Sex! Betrayal! Bloody murder! Written by Steven Cheslik-deMeyer, Tim Maner, and Alan Steven Hewitt, this rock musical experience at Austin Playhouse from July 11-20 recounts the life and trial of Lizzie Borden for the ax murders of her father and stepmother.

In the heat of late summer 1892, Andrew Borden and his wife are found murdered in their house. The main suspect in the murders is Andrew’s youngest daughter from a previous marriage, Lizzie Borden. Using a searing rock score, and based on the historical record, Lizzie explores the heady and heated days leading up to the murder and Lizzie’s controversial acquittal of all charges and the creation of a new American myth.
