The critics all agree that THRILL ME: THE LEOPOLD AND

by Stephen Dolginoff. THRILL ME explores the relationship
between childhood friends Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb
as they explore Friedrich Nietzsche's concept of the superior
man and plot what they think is the perfect crime in 1924.
They soon became known as the America's first "thrill killers".

Theatre received Drama Desk Award Nominations for Best
