City of Angels

Book by Larry Gelbart

Music by Cy Coleman

Lyrics by David Zippel

Performances: August 22 - September 21, 2025

In the late 1940s, Stine, a bookish writer of detective stories, struggles to adapt his crime novel into a workable screenplay. As Stine tries to maintain some integrity in the backstabbing world of Hollywood, his protagonist, a hardboiled private eye named Stone, fights for survival in a city full of criminals and opportunists.

With wit, humor, and a fantastic Cy Coleman score, City of Angels captures the snappy dialogue of a Raymond Chandler detective novel and the glitzy showmanship of classic Hollywood; the result is a crowd-pleasing musical unlike any other.
