Shear Madness by Paul Portner

by Paul Portner
Now Playing ALL Summer!

Recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the longest-running non-musical play in American theatre history,Shear Madness is a wacky whodunit where the audience gets to solve the crime. The play is set in a hairstyling salon where the landlady who lives upstairs is murdered and every one of the actors could be a suspect. The performance involves audience members in questioning the actors and attempting to solve the crime, and is filled with up-to-the-minute spontaneous humor and improvisation. It’s a different play every night — but one that is always sure to elicit, as The Washington Post says, “shrieks of laughter!”
