I have no idea why anyone would see this play. I mean, it’s not like there’s someone famous in it…

I had never seen the movie (yes, I’m the one) before, but I had some idea of what it’s about based on what I heard. One of the main reasons I decided to go was when I found out that it was based on the book by William Steig (had no idea that there was a book) and the movie.

When I heard about yet another musical featuring songs from the 50s and 60s, I have to admit I was excited. The last show I saw, which I can’t remember right now (I know it played at the Julia Miles Theatre), was really good. Granted not all shows that feature some of your favorite songs are good, but what’s the worse that can happen? It’s most likely more cheaper than going to a concert and if you’re lucky has a good story to tell.

Since I had seen The Producers on Broadway and the movie that this musical is based on, I was looking forward to seeing this show. And I was quite pleased.

   I was pleasantly surprised from the opening number to the finale. I’m a fan of musicals and comedies and the fact that they were paired together with a mystery made it a must-see for me.
    The plot is what ties the whole story together. It centers on the murder of a despised leading lady during the out-of-town tryout of a Broadway bound musical, which happens to be investigated by a detective who’s a fan of musicals. It was enjoyable to watch David Hyde Pierce’s character, Lieut. Frank Cioffi, try to juggle a homicide investigation while being starstruck from being around Broadway-caliber performers to his growing attraction to a rising actress. On top of all this, he adds his two cents regarding the production.
