“The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940″ is a whodunit with a twist, and jam-packed with mistaken identities, false accusations and even a spot of romance. Set on a remote estate in New York in 1940, the plot tells the tale of Elsa von Grossenkneuten and her attempts, along with a cast of theater people, to catch the evil Stage Door Slasher who has been murdering chorus girls from Broadway shows. Stranded in a raging blizzard, the eccentric Elsa races to foil the killer before the whole cast gets slashed. The plot thickens as Nazis, dead bodies, hidden doors and secret passages abound. Who is the killer? There’s only one way to find out.

The timeless fairy tale meets the magic of Disney in this adaptation of the treasured animated film. Poor Cinderella is endlessly mistreated by her wicked stepmother and stepsisters, and denied a chance to go to the Royal Ball. With a little help from her mice friends, and a lot of help from her Fairy Godmother, Cinderella goes to the ball, meets the Prince, and falls in love! With a beautiful score including “A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes” and the classic “Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo,” this musical will charm its way into your heart, and remind you that dreams really can come true.
