‘Curtains’ open on Hanford High production

Hanford High School is presenting the musical comedy Curtains in February.

Performances are at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 2-3 and 7-10, and at 2 p.m. Feb. 10 at the school, 450 Hanford St.

Tickets are $12 to $15, depending on the location. They’re available at hanforddrama.org or at the door.

Curtains is set in Boston in the late ’50s. It centers on the murder of the leading lady of a Broadway-bound show.

The detective assigned to the case is determined not only to solve the mystery of her death, but — being a musical theater fan — save the show.

The show is “a musical theater smorgasbord extravaganza of different types of musicals,” director Matt Leggett said in a news release.

Performer Tru Stites added that, “Everyone should come and see this show because it is extremely charming and guaranteed to give you a good time. The show is funny, creepy, lively, odd, inquisitive, and above all just marvelous.”
