NO WAY TO TREAT A LADY

Book, music and lyrics by Douglas J. Cohen

Based on William Goldman’s novel and film

 

No Way to Treat a Lady is a musical comedy thriller about a publicity-crazed actor-turned-killer and the down and out, yet charming detective who pursues him. Based on the best-selling novel by William Goldman that became a renowned 1968 movie, it’s a wicked blend of humor, romance and murder that won the Richard Rodgers grant in 1987. An exciting musical presented in film noir style with the audience in on the crime, watching the pieces of the puzzle slowly come together as the detective solves the case.

 

“TERRIFIC! HILARIOUS! DYNAMIC! An unabashedly histrionic romp with plenty of laughs, a fair share of romance and a welcome abundance of drollery.”

– L.A. Times

 

“A fine way to treat a musical! A real winner.”

– New York Post
