New Lizzie Borden Play Premieres in Fall River
“The Durfee Theatre Company is presenting the original play, NEMESIS: A TALE OF DISCOVERY AND MURDER for their entry into the 2009 Massachusetts High School Drama Guild Competition throughout the month of March
NEMESIS investigates other possibilities surrounding the murders in the infamous Lizzie Borden case. 51 student cast and crew members have been in rehearsal since January. Author Jane Bigelow has used trial & inquest testimony, newspaper articles of the day and historical information by “Lizzie” authors (including her late uncle, Dr. Jordan Fiore, History Department Chair at Bridgewater State College) for insight, facts and inferences.
The play is directed by Gary Bigelow; among the 32 cast members are Talia Boyer as Lizzie, Cameron Torres as Andrew Borden, Kelsey Taylor as Abby and Emily Borges as Emma. Lizzie’s trial attorney, Andrew Jennings, is portrayed by Jared Robinson.”
