Long Beach Playhouse – Studio Theatre (Long Beach, CA)
This Jacobean tragi-comedy is filled with lust, murder and madness. Beatrice is about to be married to a man she doesn’t love. Instead of just giving the poor man his ring back, she pays someone to kill him. As luck would have it, though, the hideously deformed killer is in love with her and wants more than just a few gold pieces for his troubles. Set in an insane asylum, this 17th-century work by Tomas Middleton has been adapted for modern audiences with thrillingly dark twists and turns, gory violence and kinky sex. The story itself remains relevant after nearly 400 years for its exploration of love, treachery and the lengths some will go to get what they want.
