A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder

Ahmanson Theatre
135 North Grand Ave Los Angeles

Getting away with murder can be so much fun ... and there's no better proof than the 2014 Tony Award winner for Best Musical, A Gentleman's Guide to Love & Murder. The knock-'em-dead Broadway hit tells the story of a distant heir to a family fortune who tries to jump forward in the line of succession by eliminating the eight relatives who stand in his way. Along the way, he also has to juggle his mistress, his fiancee -- who's also his cousin -- and the constant threat of landing behind bars, all while not missing afternoon tea. One actor plays all eight of the doomed heirs in the uproariously funny show The Hollywood Reporter raves, "restores our faith in musical comedy."

"...The touring production that opened Wednesday at the Ahmanson Theatre looks like a million bucks (only fitting for a show about Edwardian aristocrats) and has a refreshingly impish spirit. If the entertainment seems belabored in places, the audacious cleverness of these twisted high jinks never fails to impress."

The Hollywood Reporter - Recommended

"...While Kind Hearts and Coronets remains the source of Gentleman's Guide (though the official credit is the obscure novel on which that film was based), an obvious progenitor is Sweeney Todd. With their similar settings, quirky scores, witty wordplay and sardonic themes about privilege and poverty, both shows come packed with enough laughs to suggest that a little murder just might be a good thing."

"...When A GENTLEMAN'S GUIDE TO LOVE AND MURDER opened on Broadway, critics raved with enthusiasm and excitement. The National Tour does a bang-up job which easily equals the Broadway production. Besides, Kevin Massey, playing the lead Monty, repeats his original Broadway role in Los Angeles. The play may be a trifle long "� but the audience is having so much fun that they probably don't even notice."

"...If you're looking for a clever, imaginative, fun evening in Los Angeles this spring, look no further than Center Theatre Group's Ahmanson Theatre, where the national tour of A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder opened this week. Winner of four 2014 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, this musical comedy is an imaginative romp that left the opening night audience in stitches."
