In “The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940,” the creative team responsible for a recent Broadway flop – in which three chorus girls were murdered by the mysterious “Stage Door Slasher” – re-assemble for a backer’s audition of their new show at a Westchester estate. But soon the infamous “Slasher” strikes again … and again … and again. A blizzard cuts off any possible retreat, bodies start to drop in plain sight, and accusing fingers point in all directions. With no help from the bumbling police inspector who snowshoes in to investigate, the team must solve the mystery on their own and unmask the “Slasher” themselves. Stained Glass Playhouse’s production of “The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940” stars Alexis Rhodes as Helsa Wenzel, Pat Shumate as Elsa Von Grossenknueten, Bob Montle as Michael Kelly, Robert Evans as Patrick O’Reilly, Gregg Vogelsmeier as Ken De La Maize, Mollie Klekta as Nikki Crandall, Clayton Morgan...
