Charlie and Sharon
About the show
Mississippi Mud Productions presents a fantastical, tragicomic haunting between Charles Manson and Sharon Tate after her murder at the hands of his followers. More…
In this Japanese Noh-style otherworldly drama, Manson must face his victim, Tate, after the heinous massacre he orchestrated. Helmed by Obie-winning, Tony-nominated director Austin Pendleton.
"Ninety minutes of unrelenting drivel…This is not to say that the performances are poor; they are not…He’s convincingly crazy; she’s every inch the self-involved, working actress. Their conversations often feel spontaneous...There are laugh lines—though much of what’s funny may well be unintentional…There is nothing in Manson to be redeemed and there is little in Tate to connect with...There is no point here. We don’t get anywhere." Full Review
See it if You have any interest in Charles Manson, Sharon Tate or neither! Amazing performances and excellent, original writing. One of a kind.
Don't see it if No reason not to see it.
See it if you want to see two great actors adding to and subtracting from an imaginary script. Note; Austin Pendleton can do no wrong
Don't see it if you do not wonder about the whatifs and whys of a mass murderer (or not) ........... The Talk-back is wonderful
