A musical comedy which unfolds backstage at Boston’s Colonial Theatre in 1959, where a new musical could be a Broadway smash, were it not for the presence of its talent-free leading lady.  When the hapless star dies on opening night during her curtain call, a local detective arrives on the scene to conduct an investigation.  But the lure of the theatre proves irresistible and after an unexpected romance blooms for the stage-struck detective, he finds himself just as drawn toward making the show a hit, as he is in solving the murder.

“Curtains” had its World Premiere at the Ahmanson in Los Angeles, CA under the auspices of Center Theatre Group (Michael Ritchie, Artistic Dir) in assoc w/Roger Berlind, Roger Horchow, Daryl Roth, Jane Bergere & Ted Hartley on Aug 9, 2006.
