The playwright duo of Van Zandt and Milmore pay tribute to “Master of Horror” Alfred Hitchcock with this comedy whodunit.

Off-and-on New York couple Marnie and Jeff enter an even more complicated phase of their relationship when they think they spy their cross-courtyard neighbor doing away with his wife. After they draw their torn curtain, the lady vanishes — and suspicion places murder beyond a shadow of a doubt.

The bumbling witnesses sneak into their neighbor’s apartment — 39 steps away — and the fun begins. Among multiple instances of door-slamming, body-snatching and a frantic flashlight chase scene, two questions remain: Who killed Lila Larswald? And if she’s not dead … then who is?

The crazy farce plays out on a shadow-box set that allows the audience to be present in one apartment, while viewing the action in its mirror-image neighboring unit across the way.

NOTE: Reservations are highly recommended as performances often sell out before the performance date. Reservations can be made online, by phone or in person at the theater box office. A credit card (Visa or MasterCard) is required to reserve your seats. Your credit card will not be charged (unless you request it) and you may pay cash or charge the tickets upon your arrival at the theater. We reserve the right to charge your credit card for unclaimed tickets. We also reserve the right to sell your unclaimed tickets to waiting patrons.

Please note, we must speak with you by phone to confirm your reservation. Leaving a voice mail does not confirm your reservation. We will call you back to confirm your ticket request.

Please be aware that Stageloft Repertory Theater must be informed of a cancellation of any tickets 48 hours before the show to guarantee that tickets will not be charged to your account. We will make every effort to sell your released seats to other patrons, but if we are unable to do so, we reserve the right to charge your account. We keep a “wait list” of patrons who call for tickets but cannot be accommodated because of a sellout, but we cannot guarantee that a party on the wait list can be contacted and will still want to buy your released tickets. Thank you for your understanding.
