About: Thrill Me

Chicago, 1924. Two wealthy college kids. One obsessed with crime, the other love. A contract signed in blood. They believed that they'd committed the perfect murder – but had they?

Stephen Dolginoff’s chamber musical Thrill Me: The Leopold & Loeb Story examines the relationship between Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb, both of whom appeared wealthy, normal and intelligent, training to become lawyers with comfortable lives ahead of them. Through a series of flashbacks we are taken on the young men’s journeys, one who believed he was above the law, obsessed by the philosophy of Nietzsche to the point where he believed he was a ‘Superman’ above the law, beyond good and evil. The other – a loner – becoming a willing accomplice, empowering Loeb in his misdemeanours, his reward, Richard’s time, attention and conditional love.

Thrill Me has been captivating audiences since 2003 and has a string of awards and nominations to its name, this production alone was awarded 8 nominations, including the whatsonstage award for “Best Off-West End Production”. The production also garnered wonderful reviews from both press and the public alike.
