THE STORY: Die Mommy, Die! is a comic thriller, set in 1967 and in the style of Joan Crawford/Lana Turner/Bette Davis B-movies. The play concerns Angela Arden (Chris Whyde), a fallen pop diva who decides to murder her husband, failed film producer Sol Sussman with the help of her younger lover, actor Tony Parker. After Sol’s death, Angela’s manipulative daughter, Edith, convinces her “emotionally disturbed” brother, Lance, that they must avenge their father’s death by killing their mother. One vile weapon – an arsenic-laced suppository!



Charles Busch has written such plays as Psycho Beach Party, Vampire Lesbians of Sodom, Tale of the Allergist’s Wife and Red Scare on Sunset.
