Murder for Two
“Ingenious! A snazzy double act” – New York Times
Officer Marcus Moscowicz is small-town police officer and an aspiring detective. On a dark and stormy night moments before the surprise birthday party for renowned author Arthur Whitney, shots are fired, and the writer is murdered! As the nearest detective is an hour away, Marcus seizes the opportunity to showcase his sleuthing abilities, with the assistance of his silent partner Lou. Now, the question remains: Who is the culprit behind this mysterious crime?
A high-energy musical whodunit, Murder for Two is a blend of a classic musical, a comedy and a murder mystery, where two actors play a dozen different characters and a piano. Settle in for this witty homage to old-fashioned murder mysteries.
