SHEAR MADNESS by Paul Portner
Opening June 4th, 2010; Discount Previews June 2nd and 3rd. EXTENDED TO JULY 11th!
Don’t miss “America’s Favorite Comedy” and the longest-running play in the history of American theatre. It’s the uproarously funny whodunit where the audience gets to solve the crime. A combination of comedy, mystery and improvisation, Shear Madness incorporates current events, celebrities and gossip into the script, keeping it local and constantly fresh.
Living above the Shear Madness hair salon can be murder. It is for concert pianist Isabel Czerny. But the question remains, “whodunit?” Was it her friend, Barbara DeMarco, the hairstylist extraordinaire? Was it Tony Whitcomb, the salon’s irrepressible proprietor? What about Eddie Lawrence, the charming mystery man? It certainly couldn’t be Mrs. Shubert, the town’s prim and proper socialite. Or could it? You decide. PAY CLOSE ATTENTION! The detectives will soon be around, and they need you, to help solve the crime. The information provided by the audience will influence the outcome of this award-winning comedy.
