UMMTA is proud to announce its Semester 1 show for 2011: Curtains!

curtainsbanner

A rollicking send-up of backstage murder mystery plots, set in 1959 Boston, Massachusetts, Curtains follows the fallout when the supremely untalented star of Robbin’ Hood of the Old West is murdered during her opening night curtain call. It is up to a police detective who moonlights as a musical theatre fan to save the show, solve the case, and maybe even find love before the show reopens, without getting killed himself! With book by Rupert Holmes and music and lyrics by Kander & Ebb, the show promises a rip-roaring night of larger-than-life characters, romance, mystery and intrigue!

Performance dates will be the 6th – 14th of May 2011, in the Union Theatre at The University of Melbourne. You can find a full synopsis of the show at http://www.guidetomusicaltheatre.com/shows_c/curtains.html
