MURDER FOR TWO to Slay Seattle Audiences in Northwest Premiere

Murder for Two, the latest collaboration between The 5th Avenue Theatre and ACT - A Contemporary Theatre, is drop-dead funny. The production, with book by Joe Kinosian and Kellen Blair, music by Kinosian and lyrics by Blair, makes its Northwest Premiere March 25 - June 11, 2017, directed by Daniel Knechtges.

Starring Seattle musical theater favorite Richard Gray and piano-playing wunderkind Chris DiStefano, this contemporary theatrical masterpiece comes with a twist - one actor (DiStefano) investigates the crime; the other (Gray) plays all the suspects - and together they comprise the entire orchestra.

A zany blend of classic musical comedy and madcap mystery, Murder for Two is a whirlwind 90-minute whodunit that's loaded with killer laughs. This theatrical duet was written by Joe Kinosian and Washington native Kellen Blair and was an Off-Broadway hit. Murder for Two is the perfect blend of music, murder and mayhem.

Previews play Saturday, March 25 - Wednesday, March 29, 2017. Opening Night is set for Thursday, March 30, 2017 (press night), and shows run through Sunday, June 11, 2017, playing Tuesdays & Wednesdays - 7:30 PM; Thursdays & Fridays - 8:00 PM; Saturdays - 2:00 PM & 8:00 PM; and Sundays - 2:00 PM & 7:00 PM (no 7:00 PM performance on May 14 & 21) at ACT - A Contemporary Theatre in the Falls Theatre (700 Union Street, Seattle).
