David Hyde Pierce, the 2007 Tony Award winning star of Curtains, will appear on ABC-TV's "The View" on Wednesday, September 12.  "The View" airs locally on WABC-TV, Channel 7 from 11AM - Noon.

Curtains will also celebrate its 200th performance on Broadway tomorrow night at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre (302 West 45th Street, west of Eighth Avenue).  

Curtains, the Musical Comedy Whodunit, features a book by Rupert Holmes, music by John Kander, lyrics by Fred Ebb, original book and concept by Peter Stone and additional lyrics by Kander & Holmes.  Curtains is directed by Scott Elli with choreography by Rob Ashford.

"Curtains unfolds backstage at Boston's Colonial Theatre in 1959, where a new musical could be a Broadway smash, were it not for the presence of its talent-free leading lady.  When the hapless star dies on opening night, Lieutenant Frank Cioffi (David Hyde Pierce) arrives to conduct an investigation.  But the lure of the theatre proves irresistible and after an unexpected romance blooms for the stage-struck detective, he finds himself just as drawn toward making the show a hit, as he is in solving the murder," explain press notes.
