Book tickets for Lizzie at Greenwich Theatre

BritishTheatre.com is pleased to bring you these great first look production photos from Lizzie by Soren Malmose now playing at the Greenwich Theatre. On a sweltering summer morning in 1892, in a small New England city, a prominent businessman and his wife were axed to death in their home. Their daughter Lizzie Borden was the prime suspect. Lizzie’s trial was a coast-to-coast media sensation, and her story has become an American legend. Lizzie is four women fronting a six-piece rock band. Lizzie is rage, sex, betrayal, and bloody murder. Lizzie is American mythology set to a blistering rock score. Lizzie is a new American musical with a sound owing less to Sondheim and Andrew Lloyd Webber than to Bikini Kill, the Runaways, and Heart. Lizzie runs at Greenwich Theatre until 12 March 2017.
