Summary

John Logan’s carefully researched and clinically penned 1985 play “Never the Sinner,” now the subject of a skillful new production at the Victory Gardens Biograph Theatre directed by Gary Griffin, was the breakthrough work for a singularly successful writer who would, over the next two decades, move on from the genteel Chicago murderers known as Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb to probe a plethora of other disturbing monsters.
