Curtains: School Edition is a delightful and comedic murder mystery musical set in the 1950s at a struggling Broadway theatre. When the star of a new musical is murdered during the opening night curtain call, the cast and crew are thrown into chaos. Enter Detective Frank Cioffi, a musical theatre-loving cop, who is called to investigate. As he navigates the egos and eccentricities of the theatre world, he finds himself entangled in both solving the crime and helping the production improve its show, all while falling for the show’s ingénue, Niki Harris.
The musical combines witty dialogue with catchy tunes, including numbers like “Show People” and “The Woman’s Dead,” offering both humor and heartfelt moments. With a love for theatre at its core, Curtains plays with the dynamics of backstage drama and the artistic process, celebrating the passion of performers while lampooning the chaos of a Broadway show. The School Edition adapts the original script, removing some adult themes to make it suitable for young performers while retaining the heart and humor that made the show a hit.
