Lizzie Borden: An Axe-Idental Icon
Lizzie the Musical is currently on at the Hayes Theatre, directed by Maeve Marsden and featuring an all-female cast and crew. It retells, in song, the horrific true story of Lizzie Borden, who, in 1892, was accused of killing her father and stepmother with an axe. Adding spice to the crime, Borden was also rumoured to have been romantically involved with the family’s maid and a female neighbour.
