Stephen Dolginoff's two-character musical about youthful thrill killers Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb may challenge the audience's powers of empathy, but director Nick DeGruccio's taut staging and wrenching performances by Stewart W. Calhoun and Alex Schemmer make us care, almost in spite of ourselves.

The performance I saw Sunday night was truly amazing. Stewart Calhoun and Alex Schemmer were SO INCREDIBLE. I going back again this weekend before it closes and taking friends.

Paula M. Beverly Hills,

This was one of the best shows I've ever seen in LA. The performances were incredible. Everyone in the full audience last night was hanging on the actors' every word. I saw another musical by this director, and I'm definitely becoming a big fan. Highly recommended!

The ONLY reason to see this is the performance of Stewart Calhoun. The book/music/lyrics are so weak. The direction is all over the place. Calhoun takes this second-rate material and makes a first rate performance.
