The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940 by John Bishop is an ingenious and wildly comic romp which enjoyed a long and critically hailed run both on and Off-Broadway. Poking antic fun at the more ridiculous aspects of "show biz" and the corny thrillers of Hollywood's heyday, the play is a non-stop barrage of laughter as those assembled (or at least those who aren't killed off) untangle the mystery of the "Stage Door Slasher" …a kind of crossbreeding of Charles Ludlam’s The Mystery of Irma Vep and Terrence McNally’s It's Only a Play seasoned with a soupcon of NOISES OFF.
The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940 is directed by Steven Lantz-Gefroh.
