July 16 – 25

By Joe Kinosian and Kellen Blair 

A Co-Production with Portland Stage Company

This dynamic “comedy with music” spins a murder mystery packed with laughs and lightning-fast character changes! The story unfolds as Officer Marcus Moscowicz, an ambitious small-town cop, seizes the chance to solve the murder of famed novelist Arthur Whitney, who’s been fatally shot at his own surprise birthday party. With a colorful cast of suspects – including the writer’s flamboyant wife, a diva ballerina, and a suspiciously friendly psychiatrist – Marcus has just minutes to crack the case before the official detective arrives…and the ice cream melts! 2 actors play 13 roles…and a piano…in this madcap tribute to classic murder mysteries that promises laughs, surprises, and nonstop hilarity!

“Ingenious! A snazzy double-act (with) funny, deftly turned songs.”
– The New York Times.
