FINAL RESTING PLACE at Broadwater BlackBox Theatre

Final Resting Place is a theatrical event that gives a voice to women whose deaths are sensationalized, but whose stories often go untold. The play is a composite of monologues from women who have crossed paths with the same serial killer. Some are victims from beyond the grave, some are family left behind, and others are survivors who remain nameless while the killer has become a household name.

These gut-wrenching, Brechtian confessions are intertwined with a satirical, behind-the-scenes peek at a slasher movie franchise based on the murders. Soon the audience isn’t able to tell fact from fiction. And that is exactly what Final Resting Place hopes to highlight. Our country’s obsession with true crime, murder podcasts, and horror p*rn flicks has made the killing of women America’s favorite pastime.
