“Curtains,” from the creators of “Cabaret” and “Chicago,” is a musical, comedy, whodunit taking place in Boston 1959. Saucon Valley’s theatre program performed “Curtains” to enthusiastic audiences between March 14-17. The plot begins with a backstage murder mystery when the lackluster star of “Robin Hood of the Old West,” Jessica Crenshaw, is murdered during the opening night curtain call. Arriving on the scene is police detective Lt. Frank Cioffi to investigate the crime. It turns out, Cioffi himself is a big fan of theater. It’s up to Cioffi to solve the murder as he interacts with the cast before the play can re-open. The plot contains many twists, turns, laughs, romance and more. The production was produced and directed by Chad A. Miller along with Kimberly Tassinaro (assistant director), Patrick Mertz (technical director), Michael Marini (orchestra director).
