Nominated for 8 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Best Book of a Musical , and Best Original Score . When a Broadway musical is in its out-of-town tryout… well, sometimes it's murder! Never fear! Boston's finest detective, and a diehard musical theatre fan himself, is on the case, and between the show stoppers (by John Kander and Fred Ebb) and the heart stoppers (provided by Rupert Holmes and Peter Stone), all will be hilariously revealed! Packed with glorious tunes from the legendary team of Kander and Ebb, and a witty, charming script filled with delightful characters, CURTAINS is a hilarious musical comedy whodunit. CURTAINS takes us backstage at Boston's Colonial Theatre in 1959, where a new musical might become a Broadway smash, were it not for the presence of its talent free leading lady. When the hapless star dies on opening night during her curtain call, Lieutenant Frank Cioffi arrives on the scene to conduct an investigation. But the lure of the theatre proves irresistible, and after an unexpected romance blooms for the stage- struck detective, he finds himself just as drawn toward making the show a hit, as he is in solving the murder. Directed by Patrick Mendelson.
