Share
This 90+minute version can be performed remotely, edited together, and streamed.
A Killer Party: A Murder Mystery Musical is an online, performance-ready show based on the successful 9-episode streaming musical which took the musical theatre world by storm. This hilarious and irreverent send-up of the classic Murder Mystery features an all-star creative team that includes music by Jason Howland (Little Women), lyrics by Nathan Tysen (The Burnt Part Boys), and a book by the illustrious Kait Kerrigan and Rachel Axler.
When Varthur McArthur, the artistic director of a failing theater in Duluth, invites his troupe of disgruntled actors and collaborators to the first read of an "immersive murder mystery dinner party," no one knew that he would be the victim. Or did they? Enter the eager, determined, and untested Detective Case. After sequestering the guests into separate rooms (because, you know, social-distancing), she gets down to finding out whodunnit, uncovering secret affairs, life-long grudges, backstage drama, and a lot of musical theater song and dance. Sifting through lies and red herrings and a truly baffling murder mystery script left by the deceased, Case vows to find the truth and secure her future as a great detective.
Designed to be performed remotely online as a single 90 minute+ piece with YOUR ACTORS and shown online. A Killer Party: A Murder Mystery Musical represents a bold new way to produce theatre while still adhering to public safety guidelines. We can't wait to see how your theatre tells this madcap story.
