Legacy Stage will bring Lizzie: The Musical—a rock-’n’-roll retelling of the legend of America’s favorite alleged axe murderess—to The Barn at Meriam Park for one extended weekend this month (Oct. 18-22). It’s a significant step away from the troupe’s best-known work to date—the Shakespeare productions in Bidwell Park—and its first full-fledged musical, as well as the first theatrical production to be staged at the The Barn.
The play features a four-woman ensemble cast made up of local theater luminaries Ashiah Bird, Kellen Staub, Alyssa Jade and Sierra Hall (playing the titular role) backed by a full, live rock band.
