A musical mystery comedy set in 1959 Boston, Massachusetts. The musical is a send-up of backstage murder mystery plots and follows the fallout when the supremely untalented star of Robbin' Hood of the Old West is murdered during her opening night curtain call. The cast and crew all become suspects and it is up to Lt. Frank Cioffi, a police detective who moonlights as a musical theatre fan to save the show, solve the case, and maybe even find love before the show reopens, without getting himself killed. Songs include "Wide Open Spaces", "It's A Business", "A Tough Act to Follow" and "The Woman's Dead".
