Boston Playwrights' Theatre presents
LORENA: a Tabloid Epic
by Eliana Pipes
Sunday, October 17, 2021 at 2:00PM

Boston Playwrights' Theatre
949 Commonwealth Avenue
Boston, MA 02215


LORENA: a Tabloid Epic spins out of the media hailstorm surrounding Lorena Bobbitt, who became a sensation after she used a kitchen knife against her abusive husband in 1993. The tacky dystopia of American pop culture tumbles onto the stage in a series of funhouse vignettes that know no bounds, while The Playwright desperately tries to protect Lorena from the play which has clearly gotten out of her control.

Content advisory: Because it follows Lorena Bobbitt's case, this play contains descriptions (not depictions) of sexual assault and domestic violence. A strobe light is also used in the performance.
