Curtains
Director: Don Smith
It’s the brassy, bright, and promising year of 1959. Boston’s Colonial Theater is host to the opening night performance of a new musical. When the leading lady mysteriously dies on stage the entire cast and crew are suspects. Enter a local detective, who just happens to be a musical theater fan and the backstage mayhem commences! Curtains was the last collaboration of John Kander and Frank Ebb, the composers of such hits as Chicago and Cabaret.

At Lyric Music Theater, we strive to be community theater for the entire community. Hatred and bias against any group, ethnicity, or gender have NEVER had any place in our Theater, and that includes oppression, violence, and all acts of racism and/or prejudice.
First and foremost, we value and respect our differences, whether racial; cultural; gender identity; sexual orientation; socioeconomic; religious; physical or mental ability; or country of origin. We affirm our commitment to creating a place where everyone, from all walks of life, feels empowered and welcomed.
It is our responsibility as individuals, and as an institution, to make Lyric Music Theater a welcoming place for EVERYONE. We stand with our Community. That is our moral obligation, and we will stay ever vigilant in upholding these commitments.
