Year: 1976. Original 1976 poster for Broadway play, POOR MURDERER, which opened at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre on October 20, 1976, and closed January 2, 1977, after 8 previews and 87 performances. Although it has an undercurrent of political allegory- not surprising in view of the fact that the author is a Czech- Poor Murderer is not primarily a "political" play in any traditional sense, though it does contain such lines as "You can't drown humiliation. You can only pay it back." "With what?" "With revenge." It is set in the "great hail of the St. Elizabeth Institute for Nervous Disorders" in St. Petersburg, Russia.
