Description

John Wayne Gacy was one of the worst serial killers in US history: responsible for the rape, torture and murder of at least 33 teenage boys and young men in the 1970s. He became known as the Killer Clown, receiving international attention and shocking his suburban Chicago community where he was known for his performances as a clown at charitable events and children's parties. From his own chilling perspective and using quotes made by the man himself with well-documented testimony, this new play seeks to explore the question.... are killers born evil?
