Lizzie, el musical

The rock musical about the true story of Lizzie Borden, the axe murderer

In the summer of 1892, in Fall River (Massachusetts, USA), Lizzie Borden was accused of murdering her father and stepmother with an axe. The witnesses’ statements were inconsistent and contradictory, and there wasn’t enough incriminating evidence, so Lizzie was ultimately declared innocent. We will delve into Lizzie’s mysterious mind, weighing the motives she might have had to commit those murders: The loss of inheritance? Oppression? Sexual abuse? Mental imbalance?
