A Musical by Rupert Holmes | Original Broadway production produced by the New York Shakespeare Festival, Joseph Papp, Producer

Inspired by the great British Music Hall and Melodrama traditions of the Victorian Era, The Mystery of Edwin Drood promises an evening of thrills and chills, hilarity and hijinks…and a surprising ending. Based on the unfinished work of Charles Dickens, this unsolved musical-murder-mystery invites you to join a delightfully zany crew of players at the Music Hall Royale as they regale you with a show within a show unlike anything you’ve ever seen at Near West Theatre. Nine performances. Dozens of possible endings. The fate of the company rests in your hands!

THE MYSTERY OF EDWIN DROOD is presented by arrangement with Tams-Witmark, www.tamswitmark.com.
