book and lyrics by Lynn Ahrens
music by Stephen Flaherty
based on the novel by Michael Butterworth
May 3-11, 2025
Tony Award-winning writing team Ahrens and Flaherty's first produced show, Lucky Stiff is an offbeat, hilarious murder mystery farce, complete with mistaken identities, six million bucks in diamonds, and a corpse in a wheelchair. Based on the novel "The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo," the story revolves around an unassuming English shoe salesman who is forced to take the embalmed body of his recently murdered uncle on a vacation to Monte Carlo. Should he succeed in passing his uncle off as alive, Harry Witherspoon stands to inherit $6,000,000. If not, the money goes to the Universal Dog Home of Brooklyn... or else his uncle's gun-toting ex!
