Synopsis
Most of us know the gruesome events that took place in 1892 in the Borden home in Fall River, Massachusetts. And, ever since the infamous butcherings of Miss Lizzie's parents in the heat of that August 4th morning, that old poem about Lizzie Borden taking an axe has been recited daily by children all across the world. Most of us know that Lizzie was arrested, tried, and eventually acquitted of murder. But not many of us know or understand the rest of Lizzie's story.
In Miss Lizzie A. Borden Invites You To Tea, we find Lizzie an aging, lonely spinster, in 1913. Twenty one years after the murders, the notoriety of her trial has waned and her heyday has passed. Her status as 'social celebrity' has faded, and has left her forgotten by all but a handful of hungry local journalists, and a bitter, taunting few who won't allow her peace. In this one-woman tour-de-force, we witness Lizzie's powerful lust for freedom and learn how such a yearning can drive one to acts of unimaginable desperation. Boz and the Bard Productions, Inc. is proud to bring its critically acclaimed NYC production of this play to Fair Lawn, NJ for a special limited engagement.
