Brigham’s Playhouse 2019 season kicks off with “A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder”
By Melanie Baxendale
Brigham’s Playhouse, a southern Utah leader in live theater, is excited to announce the beginning of its 2019 season with the classic “A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder” running through Feb. 16 at its intimate, indoor theater in Washington. This knock-’em-dead, uproarious hit is sure to give you a laugh and leave you begging for more — entertainment, that is.
When the low-born Monty Navarro finds out that he’s eighth in line for an earldom in the lofty D’Ysquith family, he figures that his chances of outliving his predecessors are slight and sets off down a far more ghoulish path. Can he knock off his unsuspecting relatives without being caught and become the ninth Earl of Highhurst? And what of love? Because murder isn’t the only thing on Monty’s mind. “A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder” is a murderous romp filled with unforgettable music and non-stop laughs and is truly an original and fresh new comedy that will be sure to delight.
Performances will take place Thursdays–Saturdays at 7 p.m., with matinee performances at 2 p.m. on Saturdays. Tickets for adults are $23, $21 for seniors, and $17 for children over 5 and students. New for the group’s 2019 season is the option of a dessert theater ticket: Pay an additional $5 when you purchase your ticket and receive your choice of a featured dessert — Angel of Death Cake for “A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder” — sweets and treats, and a beverage of your choice.
Brigham’s Playhouse believes in the power of live theater and its ability to provide audiences and performing artists with life-changing experiences. It strives to provide professional quality performances that are uplifting and wholesome for the whole family. The perpetuation of the arts through performing arts education and training is also a priority to Brigham’s Playhouse.
