Machinal by Sophie Treadwell

Machinal is a 1928 play by American playwright Sophie Treadwell, inspired by the real-life case of Ruth Snyder whose execution by electric chair for the murder of her husband became a cause célèbre. It continues to be regarded as one of the best examples of Expressionist Theatre. Now, nearly a century further on, many of the questions it posed still have a relevance. A strong cast promises to make this production a must for those who enjoy good drama and thought-provoking issues that are as relevant today as ever.
