Violet Sharp is based on a true story. Sharp, a young British domestic in the home of Anne Lindbergh’s mother, raises the suspicions of a police officer investigating the kidnapping of the Lindbergh’s infant son. In her initial confession, Violet lies to the police as to her whereabouts on the night of the kidnapping. As the police relentlessly pursue her confession, Violet desperately tries to clear her name. But gripped with fear and in confusion, she only manages to further convince the police of her guilt. “This is social history as high art, a gripping and important play.” Jim Fisher, Author of The Lindbergh Case and The Ghosts of Hopewell.
