Breaking the Curtain ·

2021/10/10

Lizzie Borden took an axe, gave her mother forty whacks. When she saw what she had done, she gave her father forty-one... On this Show History episode, we hang up our LaDuca shoes and take a stab at True Crime. Join us as we look into the real-life case of Lizzie Borden, who inspired the musical LIZZIE; an American mythology set to a blistering rock score with a sound owing less to Sondheim and Andrew Lloyd Webber than to Bikini Kill, the Runaways, and Heart.
