Broadway Tickets are always a hot item when visiting New York City. In March, a new show will be added to the already packed menu of musicals, dramas, comedies, puppets and what-nots. “Curtains,” a comic murder mystery, will open on Broadway on March 22 with one of the last scores written by John Kander and Fred Ebb.
“Curtains” played to mixed reviews in Los Angeles earlier this year. The show is about a stage-struck detective investigating a murder at a Boston musical, stars David Hyde Pierce and Debra Monk.

Set in 1959 at a pre-Broadway tryout, everyone is a suspect when the leading lady mysteriously dies on-stage at the end of the show. It’s up to detective David Hyde Pierce, whose character is perhaps a little too excited at the prospect of investigating a crime on the big stage, to sort out the motives and finger the culprit.
Scott Ellis directs and Rob Ashford choreographs. Original stars David Hyde Pierce, Debra Monk, Karen Ziemba, Jason Danieley, Jill Paice and Edward Hibbert will reprise their turns for the Broadway run.
Broadway and the white lights have always drawn tourists and gossip in New York City.
