CURTAINS is a delightful and suspenseful musical comedy, featuring a Golden Age-style score by the legendary songwriting duo John Kander & Fred Ebb, the creative minds behind CABARET and CHICAGO. With a sharp, witty book by Rupert Holmes, CURTAINS combines the best elements of classic Broadway with a clever whodunit twist that will keep audiences laughing and guessing until the very end.
Set in the brassy, bright, and promising year of 1959, Boston’s Colonial Theatre is playing host to the opening night performance of a new musical. When the leading lady mysteriously dies on stage… the entire cast and crew are suspects. Enter a local detective, who just happens to be a musical theatre fan!
With standout roles for triple-threat performers and a featured ensemble full of rich, comedic characters, CURTAINS is a musical that celebrates the joy of theatre while offering a thrilling experience for performers and audiences alike.
