In this hilarious 90-minute one-act off-Broadway hit, 2 performers play 13 rolesnot to mention the pianoin a witty and winking homage to old-fashioned murder mysteries. The New York Times said: INGENIOUS! A snazzy double-act that spins out a comic mystery animated by funny, deftly turned songs. In the mood for a laugh? You wont want to miss this killer musical comedy! A small-town policeman has dreams of making it to detective. One fateful night, shots ring out at the surprise birthday party of a Great American Novelist and the writer is killedfatally. With the nearest detective an hour away, the policeman jumps at the chance to prove his sleuthing skillswith the help of his silent partner, Lou. But whodunit? Did the victims scene-stealing wife, give him a Big Finish? Is the prima ballerina, the prima suspect? Did the overly friendly psychiatrist make a frenemy? Murder for Two is the perfect blend of music, mayhem and murder!
