Until Oct. 30 at the Festival Theatre, 55 Queen St., Stratford. As in her previous Stratford Festival productions, Feore embraces the multiple-threat talents of the performing company. While it’s not directly mentioned, the Amber Heard-Johnny Depp train wreck saturates the show’s already cynical take on jurisprudence with deeper levels of irony. Vaudeville artist Velma Kelly (Jennifer Rider-Shaw) is locked up in Cook County Jail for allegedly killing her adulterous husband and sister. Cue my exit music: the Stratford Festival is back, baby, and it would be a crime to miss this indecently thrilling show.
