The New York premiere of the musical comedy — first seen last summer in Second Stage Theatre's 2013 Uptown Series — featuring music by Joe Kinosian, lyrics by Kellen Blair and a book by Kinosian and Blair, is directed by Scott Schwartz (Golda's Balcony, Jane Eyre).
Blumenkrantz (Into the Woods, Threepenny Opera, Damn Yankees, How to Succeed…, A Class Act) plays a multitude of characters — all suspects — alongside the up-and-coming detective Marcus, played by Ryback (The History Boys at Ahmanson, The Lieutenant of Inishmore at the Mark Taper Forum), in the piece.
The critics have filed their reviews, and Playbill.com has collected them for our readers. Several reviews reflect the original premiere of Murder for Two at Second Stage this past summer. Playbill.com will continue to update our list as the reviews come in.
