This Tony Award winner for Best Musical is a hilarious and lyrical satire of money, manners, morals, and, yes, murder. After his mother's death, Monty Navarro is shocked and delighted to learn that she had a secret: she's related to the absurdly wealthy and aristocratic D'Ysquith family. And if, at first, Monty hoped his new relations might provide a sorely needed cash infusion, as eighth in line to the title of Earl of Highhurst, there isn't much hope for him inheriting the family treasure. When Monty's reunion with one of his long-lost kinfolk suddenly results in him moving into seventh place, he wonders to himself, "Why stop there?" Thus begins one of the funniest and most outrageous murder sprees in musical theatre history. Even better, in this production, all seven ill-fated D'Ysquiths are played by DMV-favorite Tom Story (Mrs. Trunchbull in Matilda).
