The Getaway Driver at Central Square Theater

Dates: 10/29/2026 - 11/22/2026

📍 Theatre: Central Square Theater


The Getaway Driver is a new crime drama written by Deborah Salem Smith and Charlie Thurston, inspired by the true story of Katherine Ann Power and Clare Schroeder. In 1970, a young activist drove the getaway car for a robbery that ended in tragedy, sending her on the run as one of the longest-listed women on the FBI's Most Wanted List. More than two decades later, she surfaces seeking redemption, while the daughter of the person killed that day demands to be heard. Directed by Curt Columbus, this rolling world premiere unfolds like a true crime thriller, tracing the long shadow of a single decision.
