The very funny musical comedy play about murder and fame.
“Curtains” unfolds backstage at Boston’s Colonial Theatre in 1959, where a new musical could be 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.
Evening performances are Wednesday through Saturday at 8:00 p.m. and Tuesdat at 7:00 p.m. Matinee shows are Sunday at 2:00 p.m. and Wednesday & Saturdat at 2:00 p.m. For ticket information, call Telecharge at (212) 239-6200. |

Tom Stoppard's sweeping and passionate play spans two countries, three generations and 22 turbulent years, at the end of which, love remains --- and so does rock 'n' roll.
It's August 1968, and Russian tanks are rolling in to Prague. Jan, the Czech student, lives for rock music; Max, the English professor, lives for Communism; and Esme, the flower child, is high. By 1990, the tanks are rolling out, the Stones are rolling in and idealism has hit the wall.
Evening performances are Tuesday through Saturday at 8:00 p.m. Matinee shows are Sunday at 3:00 p.m. and Wednesday & Saturday at 2:00 p.m. For ticket information, call Telecharge at (212) 239-6200. |
