He was a friendly mortician. She was a wealthy widow. They were an unlikely pair. The murder was just the beginning. Now, a community has to rethink everything they know about right and wrong to try to make sense of it all. The line between good and evil runs right through the heart of Texas in this new musical, inspired by the true story of Marjorie Nugent and Bernie Tiede, and the murder that shocked the close knit community of Carthage Texas.
Several performances include special offerings:
-
Performances on August 23 and 26 will be live-captioned

A post-show conversation with members of the cast and creative team will follow performances on August 14 & 30.
