Waipukurau Little Theatre and Director Madeleine Howard are thrilled to announce our latest production, based on the early 20th Century real life serial murder case dubbed ‘The Brides in the Bath’.
Bessie, Alice and Margaret have two things in common: they are all married to George Joseph Smith, and they are all dead. Surfacing from the bathtubs they were drowned in, the three breathless brides gather evidence against their womanising, murderous husband by reliving the shocking events leading up to their deaths.
Reflecting on the misconceptions of love, married life, and the not-so-happily ever after, this stunning play is both a breathtaking fantasia and a social critique, full of rich images, a myriad of characters, and lyrical language.
On stage from 14th to 17th of March and the 19th to 23rd of March, this unique and striking production is like nothing you’ve ever seen before and is not to be missed.
