This theatrically charged musical comedy thriller about a publicity-crazed actor-turned-killer and the endearing detective who pursues him is based on the bestselling novel that became a renowned motion picture. It is a devilish blend of humor, romance, and murder as the killer adopts a myriad of disguises, including a tango instructor, French waiter, female barfly and priest. However, both the detective and the killer have to deal with another obstacle--their mothers!
“Catchy tunes and snappy lyrics... Mr. Cohen's score is a reassuring fusion, a mastery of traditional musical comedy style adorning and informing an offbeat story. A beguiling musical!” – The New York Times
