MurderBalladMusical

MURDER BALLAD is the show The New York Times calls "STEAMY & FUN. A LOVE TRIANGLE WITH A RAZOR'S EDGE." 

MURDER BALLAD centers on Sara, an Upper West Sider who seems to have it all, but whose downtown past lingers enticingly and dangerously in front of her. Direct from a sold-out run at MTC, this sexy, explosive new rock musical explores the complications of love, the compromises we make, and the betrayals that can ultimately undo us.

MURDER BALLAD was conceived by Jonathan Larson Award winner and two-time Susan Smith Blackburn Prize finalist Julia Jordan with book and lyrics by Jordan and music and lyrics by indie rock singer/songwriter Juliana Nash. Drama Desk Award nominee Trip Cullman (Paul Weitz's Lonely, I'm Not; Adam Bock's A Small Fire) directed.

MURDER BALLAD starred John Ellison Conlee, Rebecca Naomi Jones, Caissie Levy, and Will Swenson. MURDER BALLAD played its final performance at Union Square Theatre on July 21st, 2013.
