Criminal Genius Tickets
Criminal Genius Theatre Tickets
Tap into live entertainment with Criminal Genius tickets. The drama-comedy play by George F. Walter follows an unscrupulous lawbreaker and his son as they hide out in a shabby motel. They have been hired to commit arson at a restaurant but decide instead to kidnap the chef, who just happens to be their boss’s daughter. In a twisted turn of events, the kidnapee advises the crooks to ransack her father’s sprawling estate before he finds them and enacts revenge. The results are calamitous, creating plenty of comic relief and teaching a few lessons in morality and accountability along the way.
Criminal Genius is a single-act play that is part of Walker’s six-play cycle, Suburban Motel, published in 1999. The play won the Hollywood Encore Producer’s Award and, in 2024, premiered in Los Angeles under the direction of Steve Rankin with a five-person cast. That same year, Criminal Genius opened for a limited engagement in the Midwest, directed by Susan Patrick Steinfeld. Buy Criminal Genius tickets from TicketSmarter right now and experience a madcap play that the Washington Post noted for its “humor and horror.” Walker has been awarded multiple honors, including the Order of Canada, and has penned plays like Filthy Rich (1979), Nothing Sacred (1988) and Dead Metaphor (2013). This dark comedy is staged live at venues such as the McLeod Theater in Carbondale, Ill.
