More about the show:

Based on a true story, The Angel Makers is a new musical about a group of Hungarian women in 1920s rural Hungary who systematically poison their husbands to escape abusive marriages. Exploring themes of agency, and justice, and resilience. The Angel Makers uses a folk-rock score to tell this true tale of how far women are willing to go to fight for their freedom.

The Angel Makers has been developed through NYU's Graduate Musical Theatre Writing Program, Abrons Arts Center, Western Connecticut State University's New Works Class, and NYU's Graduate Acting Program. The show had its premiere production as a part of the SheNYC Arts Festival in August 2024, where it had a fully-sold out run and won awards for Best Score, Best Lead Actor, and Best Musical. www.theangelmakersmusical.com
