The Grand Theatre, sponsored by
Salt Lake Community College, is proud to present the Tony Award Winning musical,
Curtains! Running October 3 – 26, 2019.
A musical comedy, murder mystery, by the
creators of Cabaret and Chicago, it’s the brassy, bright, and promising year of
1959. Boston’s Colonial Theatre is host to the opening night performance of a
new musical. When the leading lady mysteriously dies on stage the entire cast
and crew are suspects. Enter a local detective, who just happens to be a
musical theatre fan.
“Curtains is a hilarious show that is brilliantly
written, it’s been one of my favorites for years. With so many funny
characters, our cast is having a blast playing all the different stereotypical,
over the top theatre personalities in the show,” said Artistic and Executive
Director of the Grand Theatre, Seth Miller. “It’s also full of huge dance
numbers that The Grand’s audience loves. October is a great time of year
for a murder mystery, and it’s even better when the show is also a musical
comedy.”
Curtains is directed
by David Hanson, with music direction by Michael Leavitt. Performances will
take place Wednesday-Saturday at 7:30pm with Saturday matinees at 2pm. Tickets
