Join a team of actors as we take a casual dive into the first cold reading of this new work by playwright/songwriter James R. Wilke. Fortune and the Soapmaker is a macabre comedy horror musical that takes place in WWII Italy. It is loosely based on the life and times of real female Italian serial killer, Leonarda Cianciulli, who defied forensic and medical experts by the ingenious ways she disposed of her victims. Add to this murderous mother's mix an ambitious Italian dictator, young lovers and heroes, and a dash of Faustian lore to complete this recipe for Italian magical realism!
