Curtains
Curtains marks one of the last collaborations by one of the longest-running songwriting teams in Broadway history composer Kander and lyricist Ebb (Cabaret, Chicago, Zorba, The Rink, Kiss of the Spider Woman, Woman of the Year). Their The Visit was produced by The Goodman Theatre in Chicago but did not move to a New York run. Ebb died in 2004.
Curtains is set in 1959 in Boston at a pre-Broadway tryout of a new musical "where it's literally "curtains" for the leading lady who dies mysteriously onstage during the applause at the end of the show."
The entire company "the producers, the songwriters, the director, the actors, the stage manager" are possible suspects and each has an motive to be sorted out by a local detective.
The detective, of course, "is a fervent musical theatre fan, allows the company to continue rehearsing while he conducts his murder investigation," according to CTG. "He soon finds himself in the middle of the uproarious bedlam of theatrical egos and eccentricities, more murders and even a budding love affair."
