Lizbeth of Maplecroft: a Play in Two Acts: Lizzie Borden - "After the Axe" (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781425113896)

The Cast: 3 Women, Bare set. Lizbeth of Maplecroft is a powerful drama designed for three STRONG actresses. This is a dramatic invention of the later life of Lizzie Borden and what transpired between her and her sister Emma and the conflict that rips their odd but comfortable world apart when Lizzie, now calling herself "Lizbeth" strikes up a friendship with the world famous and glamorous actress, Nance O'Neil. Sparks continually fly at each interaction as their Victorian morals begin to give way to the turn of the century values colliding in on Emma and Lizzie in the new world to which they are being exposed. What binds the women together and ultimately drives them apart is the force behind this compelling drama that was named "Critic's Pick" by Show Business Weekly during its August 2000 run at the Producer's Club in NYC. It has continually been hailed for excellence in all of its productions.
