A fun, madcap, one-of-a-kind show, Curtains is a musical-murder-mystery-comedy!  Plus, it also manages to send-up the crazy world of theater at the same time!  An entertaining and charming musical from Kander & Ebb (Cabaret, Chicago).

Set in 1959 Boston, Massachusetts our show follows the fallout when the supremely untalented star Jessica Cranshaw of “Robbin' Hood of the Old West” is murdered during her opening night curtain call. It is up to Lt. Frank Cioffi, a police detective (who happens to be a huge musical theater fan) to save the show, solve the case, and maybe even find love before the show reopens, without getting killed himself!  Mayhem, madness, murder and musical theatre come together from the team that has captured Broadway's heart with phenomenal success in the original works and revivals of Cabaret and Chicago.

The bigger than life characters include Carmen Bernstein the cold-hearted producer of our show, her daughter Elaine (also known as Bambi), the overly theatrical director Christopher Belling, and the songwriting team of Aaron Fox and Georgia Hendricks (the ultimate understudy).  

The show-within-the-show has great numbers like Kansasland, Thataway, and In the Same Boat.  In between those scenes are hilarious songs about the zanyworld of theatre, such as Show People, It’s a Business and What Kind of Man.  The murder mystery angle of the story gets its own songs, too:  The Woman‘s Dead, He Did It, and more!
