BECAUSE SHE COULD.

Under the shroud of a blood moon, the world's most infamous murderesses gather in secret. United by a fate they never chose and a reputation the world wrote for them, they step forward one by one to tell their side of the story. From the chilling grace of Countess Elizabeth Báthory to the smirking defiance of Lizzie Borden, from the tragic desperation of Abigail Williams to the fiery vengeance of pirate queens Anne Bonny and Mary Reed, each woman offers a haunting, soul-baring confession — some pleading innocence, others unrepentant, all demanding to be seen as more than headlines and legends. Told through a series of electrifying solos, volatile duets, and explosive ensemble numbers, Bloody Good unravels the complicated truths behind the crimes — and the societal forces that helped shape these so-called monsters. As night deepens and the line between victim and villain blurs, the women ask: are they truly the architects of their own downfall... or the scapegoats of a world afraid of female power? Part ghost story, part rock concert, part confessional, Bloody Good is a defiant, thrilling reclamation of history’s darkest daughters — and a chilling reminder that every legend has more than one side.
