First Look at Orlando Bloom in Tracy Letts’ Killer Joe in the West End
The thriller (Tony and Pulitzer Prize winner Letts’ first play, having premiered in Chicago in 1993) follows Joe Cooper, a police detective and for-hire murderer who’s tasked with killing the estranged mother of a family plotting an insurance scheme. However, the plan spirals out of control when Joe comes face to face with the family’s innocent daughter.
The recording will be available on standard black vinyl, a limited-edition deluxe gatefold "pop-up" vinyl, and compact disc alongside digital versions.
The musical, a reinvention of Tim Burton’s cult classic film Edward Scissorhands, uses the pop music of Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, Alanis Morissette, and more.
