Event Description
October 4th through October 30th, 2010.
OBBIE Award winning playwright Kyle Jarrow’s recent, critically acclaimed “rock musical” is representative of a theatrical style - blending of song and drama - that is currently sweeping the alternative theatre scene. The songs support a thought provoking script, intensifying the emotional impact of great storytelling. The setting is the Midwestern United States. Sherriff Merle Karnopp and his wife Gertrude are under pressure from the FBI to obtain confessions from teenage lovers, Charlie Starkweather and Caril Fugate, for the killing of eleven people. Based on a true story, Love Kills (the inspiration for the movies: Oliver Stone’s Natural Born Killers and Terrence Malick’s Badlands) is a moving and disturbing examination of criminal behaviour, as all four characters are forced to examine – and ultimately assume responsibility for - their own actions and responses.
