Determined to exact revenge for the betrayal, Helen returns home to confront the now-married couple, armed by a mysterious drug granting eternal life to the person who drinks it. Things go from there.
The new musical will feature an original score by Noel Carey and Julia Mattison, a book by Marco Pennette, and will be directed and choreographed by Christopher Gattelli . Tickets are not yet on sale; the show will be part of Broadway in Chicago’s 2024 season.
