The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940 by John Bishop

Laughs, disguises, and mystery await in this door-slamming farce! Step into the lavish home of a wealthy producer, where a spirited crew–composer, lyricist, actors, and director–has gathered to pitch their next Broadway sensation, but secret passages, masked figures, and a killer–the “Stage Door Slasher”–turn it into a deadly, and hilarious, game. This clever satire of Broadway’s Golden Age and classic whodunits delivers corny comedy, over-the-top characters, and thrilling twists in equal measure. As New York Magazine proclaims, it’s “the intelligent person’s kind of nonsense.” Don’t miss this uproarious blend of showbiz glitz and spine-tingling suspense!

The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940 is presented by special arrangement with Broadway Licensing, LLC, servicing the Dramatists Play Service collection (www.dramatists.com).
