Edinburgh Fringe favorite (and Playbill Pick) Kathy and Stella Solve a Murder! will receive an industry presentation in New York later this week.

Tony winning producers Isaac Robert Hurwitz and Seth A. Goldstein of Hugo Six will present a new American adaptation of the musical comedy on October 17. Following sold-out runs in Manchester, Bristol, and Edinburgh, and a celebrated transfer to London’s West End, the show is being reimagined for U.S. audiences and is newly set in Duluth, Minnesota.

An invite-only industry presentation in New York City, directed by Tony Award winner Christopher Gattelli (Newsies, Death Becomes Her), will be held at Manhattan Movement & Arts Center.

Written by Jon Brittain (book and lyrics) and Matthew Floyd Jones (music and lyrics), Kathy & Stella Solve a Murder! is about two best friends who host Duluth’s least successful true-crime podcast, until they’re thrust into a whodunnit of their own when their favorite author is murdered. 

The New York presentation will feature Andrew Chappelle, Sara Chase, Tony nominee Alexander Gemignani, Ann Harada, Natalie Joy Johnson, Tony winner Bonnie Milligan, and Jennifer Sánchez.

Kathy & Stella Solve a Murder! was originally produced in the United Kingdom by Francesca Moody Productions, Kater Gordon, Wessex Grove, and Fiery Angel. 321 Theatrical Management serves as General Manager.
