Music and Lyrics by Michael John LaChiusa
Book by Michael John LaChiusa and George C. Wolfe, based on the poem by Joseph Moncure March
In New York at the end of the Roaring Twenties, legendary dancer Queenie has grown tired of her lover, the brutish Burrs.
To shake things up she persuades him to throw a huge, decadent party.
Among the guests they both seek out entanglements to make the other jealous.
But Queenie’s conquest is a keeper, which turns Burrs’ passion into violent obsession.
