A fallible local theater critic takes an acting role as a stunt for his newspaper and finds himself in the middle of an unscripted, onstage, opening night murder. Asked by police to help their investigation, he now must find out which of his quirky castmates is a killer. They all claim innocence, but he knows firsthand: they could just be acting. Imagine an Agatha Christie whodunit set to a Stephen Sondheim soundtrack. Asher Kaufman doesn’t have to—because he’s living it. In this laugh-out-loud funny backstage tale (a sequel to All the World’s a Stage Fright), our hero—a fallible local theater critic—once again finds himself in an uncomfortable role: acting in a professional stage production so he can write about the experience for his newspaper, the Cleveland Jewish Chronicle.
