Lizzie Andrew Borden (1860-1927) (Lauren Drew), as this production would have it, triumphed over adversity by getting her own back on a terrible father who mistreated her. The punishment, however, wasn’t proportionate to the crime. On 4th August 1892, she took an axe to her father, Andrew Jackson Borden (1822-1892) and stepmother, Abby Durfee Gray (1828-1892). Well, the Lizzie in this show says she did, and sings about it, then sings about it some more.
