Winedown Wednesday at the Springs Resort

A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder is the knock-’em-dead, hilarious Tony Award winner for Best Musical.

When the low-born Monty Navarro finds out that he’s eighth in line for an earldom in the lofty D’Ysquith family, he figures his chances of outliving his predecessors are slight and sets off down a far more ghoulish path. Can he knock off his unsuspecting relatives without being caught and become the ninth Earl of Highhurst? And what of love? Because murder isn’t the only thing on Monty’s mind….

A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder is a murderous romp filled with unforgettable music, non-stop laughs and truly original and fresh comedy that will delight audiences and leave you begging for more.

Andrew Lippa’s Wild Party is based on Joseph Moncure March’s 1928 narrative poem of the same name, this darkly brilliant show features one of the most exciting, pulse-racing scores ever written.

It’s the roaring 1920s and the beautiful, young Queenie, although she tries, cannot find a lover able to satisfy her desires – until she meets Burrs, a vaudevillian clown with a voracious appetite for women.

Lovers Queenie and Burrs decide to throw the party-to-end-all-parties in their Manhattan apartment. After the colorful arrival of a slew of guests living life on the edge, Queenie’s wandering eyes land on a striking man. As the decadence is reaching a climax, so is Burrs’ jealousy.

This show contains graphic and adult content as well as crazy good music. See the live play at the Pagosa Springs Center for the Arts.
