Doors will open 20 minutes before show/ticket time.

Actually,the Bordens received only 29 whacks, not the 81 suggested by the famous ditty, but the popularity of the above poem is a testament to the public's fascination with the 1893 M**der trial of Lizzie Borden.

Despite being acquitted of double M**der, time and popular culture have forever cast Lizzie Borden as one of America's most notorious killers. Did she do it... let's find out!
