Die! Mommie! Die!, by Charles Busch
Directed by Leslie Kimbell
August 10-13, 2017
A comic melodrama that evokes the 1960’s “grande guignol” films that featured aging stars such as Bette Davis and Joan Crawford. Ex-pop singer Angela Andrews, is trapped in a hateful marriage. Desperate to find happiness with her younger lover, an out of work TV actor, Angela murders her husband with the aid of a poisoned suppository. In a plot that reflects Greek tragedy as well as Hollywood kitsch, Angela’s Elektra-like daughter, convinces Angela’s emotionally disturbed son, Lance, that they must avenge their father’s death by killing their mother
