🔵 Bury The Hatchet
Coming to The Sid Thu Oct 15, 2026 | 7:30 PM
Presented by the Sid Williams Theatre Society
🔵 A BLUE CIRCLE SERIES EVENT
A hit show from the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe Festival!
Andrew Borden and his wife Abby are found dead in Fall River, Massachusetts, August 1892. Their daughter Lizzie is the main suspect. Tried but acquitted of the crime, the story goes that she wielded the axe that killed them. Overnight, she becomes America's original 'mad, bad and dangerous to know' icon.
Set to bluegrass music and murder ballads, this irreverently presented, knee-slapping ensemble show fuses gallows humour and vaudevillian horror.
“A clever and captivating true crime musical, Bury the Hatchet blends sharp storytelling with lively bluegrass tunes and dynamic performances. A Fringe gem that’s both thought-provoking and thoroughly entertaining. Highly recommended.”
★★★★★ “An inspired piece of theatre. This is an object lesson in how to pitch a true-crime drama – and how to hold an audience absolutely spellbound.”
⚠️ Content Warning: This event contains occasional use of strong language, depictions of violence, mature themes and subject matter.
