ABOUT THE STORY
At the start of the musical "CURTAINS" it is the brassy, bright, and promising year of 1959.
Boston’s Colonial Theatre is host to the opening night performance of a new musical.
When the leading lady mysteriously dies on stage the entire cast & crew are suspects.
Enter a local detective, who just happens to be a musical theatre fan!
Packed with glorious tunes and a witty, charming script filled with delightful characters, "CURTAINS" is a hilarious journey for both performers and the audience.
Coming from a Broadway "dream team" comprised of Rupert Holmes, John Kander, Fred Ebb and based on an original story by Peter Stone, the Broadway production garnered eight nominations at the 2007 Tony Awards® including Best Musical.
