exploded on the musical theatre scene in 1988 with their first off-Broadway show, strongLUCKY STIFF/strong. Based on the novel span style="font-style: italic;"The Man Who Broke The Bank At Monte Carlo/span
by Michael Butterworth, strongLUCKY STIFF/strong is a zany, offbeat, and very funny murder mystery farce complete with
slamming doors, mistaken identities, six million bucks in diamonds, and a
corpse in a wheelchair. br/ppThe story revolves around an unassuming English shoe salesman who is forced to take the embalmed body of his recently-murdered Atlantic City uncle on a vacation to Monte Carlo. Should he succeed in passing Uncle off as alive, Harry Witherspoon stands to inherit $6,000,000. If not, the money goes to the Universal Dog Home of Brooklyn, or else to the gun-toting wife of the casino owner! First produced at Playwrights Horizons off-Broadway (Richard Rodgers Award) the show later went on to win Washington's Helen Hayes Award for Best Musical, and is now performed frequently across the country./ppFor complete information on this andnbsp; other a href="http://www.mtishows.com/show_detail.asp?showid=000049#"Ahrens/a
