by Bruce Chadwick
published 2024-05-19

No, A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder is not a play about the heyday of killings in the U.S. by Al Capone, John Dillinger, Baby Face Nelson or any other notorious U.S. 1930s gangster. It is a play by Robert Freedman about an unusual set of murders connected to the disinheritance of a mom from a wealthy family in good olde London, England, in the early part of the twentieth century and what happens to her very, very angry son, and just about anybody he comes in contact with.
