Buy Ode To The Wasp Woman Tickets

If you enjoy true crime and the film noir genre then Ode To The Wasp Woman tickets are right for you. This play is an intriguing production that details the final 48 hours in the lives of four B-movie stars: Carl ‘Alfalfa’ Switzer, Susan Cabot, George ‘Superman’ Reeves and Barbara Payton. Written by Rider McDowell, the original 13-week production made its debut in October 2023 at the Actors Temple Theatre. In Ode To The Wasp Woman, each star’s final days are committed to four different one-act segments, complete with music.

McDowell wrote the play as an homage to his favorite childhood TV heroes which included Reeves as Superman and Switzer from the Our Gang comedies. The writer, who distinctly remembers when he learned the news of the actors’ deaths, created Ode To The Wasp Woman to inquire into the who, what, where and why behind their deaths. The play also functions as a cautionary tale about the glamour of Hollywood and how people wanting to go places in the industry can get caught up and end up being changed, and in a way, ended, by fame. Get your Ode To The Wasp Woman tickets to enjoy this true crime play set in the olden days of Hollywood.
