Ten people are trapped in a Westchester mansion during a blizzard. One of them is a killer known as the “Stage Door Slasher”. No it’s not Agatha Christie. It is The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940, an ingenious and wildly comic romp which enjoyed a long and critically hailed run both on and Off- Broadway. Poking antic fun at the more ridiculous aspects of "show biz" and the corny thrillers of Hollywood's heyday, The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940 is a non-stop barrage of laughter as those assembled (or at least those who aren't killed off) untangle the mystery of the "Stage Door Slasher."

The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940 stars local theatre favorites Polly Adkins, Kevin Campbell, Tony Wright, Emily Van Dyke, Elyse Williams, Ashby Blakely, Vito Abate, John Price, Amy Laughter and Joanna Long.

Directed by Tom Hollis –Scenic Design by James Duke –Lighting Design by Gary Sivak, Costume Design by Lara Beene.
