Love Kills

LOVE KILLS by Kyle Jarrow at Phoenix Theatre, UVIC

UVIC SPOTLIGHT ON ALUMNI
October 13 – 22, 2011
By Kyle Jarrow
Produced by Theatre Inconnu
Directed by Clayton Jevne

From the Obie Award-winning playwright, this critically acclaimed rock musical blends music and drama for a thought-provoking examination of the criminal and psychological aftermath of two teenage lovers following their shooting spree. Embroiled into this real life saga, based on the 1958 murders by Charlie Starkweather, are the small town sheriff who detains them and his wife, who are under pressure to get a confession by dawn. All four are forced to examine their own humanity and assume responsibility for their actions. Advisory: Partial nudity, mature subject matter and strong language.

REVIEWS:

“… a compelling and entertaining production. Jarrow forces us to consider that spree killers are people too… he merely advocates for humaneness and open-mindedness. And that’s never a bad thing.”
Times Colonist

“Love Kills… and it rocks too!” “Go see it; you may not come out humming, but you certainly won’t be disappointed.” Monday Magazine (Top Pick, Nominated for M Award for Best Musical)
