A parody of the great Agatha Christie thrillers of the 1940's, And Then There Was Nun is a vampy cross-dressing cocktail of humor and "whodunit" as actors emulate your favorite movie stars of the past. Who committed murder? Was it Joan Crawford, Bette Davis, Katherine Hepburn, Judy Garland or Marilyn Monroe?
Winner of the 1990 Tony Award for Best Musical, "City of Angels" is two shows in one. It is the interweaving of two plots, one dealing with the writing of a screenplay in the legendary Hollywood of the '40's; the other, the enactment of that screenplay. This double feature quality leads to many other unique production values, the most notable being the fact that "City of Angels" is perhaps the only "color coded" show any theatre audience is likely to see. The movie scenes appear in shades of black and white, and the real life scenes are in Technicolor. The show boasts two musical scores. One provides the cast with numbers to help reveal certain emotions or to celebrate particular moments in the way that only music can. The "other" score was written to emulate pure move soundtrack music, 1940's vintage. It is entirely appropriate, then, that the final curtain comes down on two happy endings.
