Set decades after the Fall River murders, the story follows Bridget Sullivan—the Bordens’ former maid—as she reflects on the headlines announcing Lizzie’s death. Through playwright Carolyn Gage’s powerful lens, long-overlooked truths come to light, revealing a deeply personal and provocative side of the story that just might change everything you thought you knew.
