Presented by New York Theatre Company

SYNOPSIS:

Inspired by the infamous 1926 case of Ruth Snyder, a woman sent to the electric chair for murdering her husband, Machinal follows this woman’s rebellion against a world of crushing conformity—where passion, desperation, and defiance collide in a shocking act of violence. Nearly a century after its debut, this play remains a strikingly relevant meditation on gender, power, and the oppression of “the machine.”

Directed by Amy Marie Seidel
