WaterTower Theatre presents A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder, a musical comedy by Robert L. Freedman and Steven Lutvak.

Set in London in 1907, A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder centers on Monty Navarro, a penniless clerk who is informed after the death of his mother that he is ninth in line to inherit the fortune and title of the Earl of Highhurst, controlled by the wealthy D'Ysquith banking family. After the imperious ruling Lord of Highhurst dismisses Monty's claim of being a relative, the eight D'Ysquiths ahead of young Mr. Navarro in the line of inheritance begin dying in natural and some highly unnatural ways. Meanwhile, Monty is desperately trying to woo money-minded Sibella Hallward -until he finds himself drawn to the young virtuous Phoebe D'Ysquith. How will all these convoluted storylines come together?

A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder will run from July 20th - July 31st, 2022 on the Terry Martin Main Stage at the Addison Theatre Centre. This hilarious Tony award winning musical will be directed & choreographed by Penny Ayn Maas and music directed by Jeff Crouse.

The production stars Andrew Keeler as Monty Navarro the protagonist, and Randy Pearlman who takes on the daunting task of playing multiple roles appearing throughout the show as the many members of The D'Ysquith Family. Laura Lyman Payne as Sibella Hallward and Alison Whitehurst as Phoebe D'Ysquith appear as the clever & alluring romantic interests for young Monty. The ensemble of the show portrays multiple characters that require immensely skilled singers and comedic actors. This very versatile ensemble will feature Sarah Caldwell, Megan A. Liles, Mary Kim, Anthony J. Ortega, Nick Moore, and D'Mariel Jones. Claire Greenberg and Hayden Gray round out this incredible group of actors as ensemble swings.

The creative & production team includes Murell Horton as Costume Designer and Scenic Designer, Aaron Johansen as Lighting Designer, Mark Howard as Sound Designer, Michael B. Moore as Wig Designer, Christopher Treviño as Production Stage Manager, Ania Lyons as Assistant Stage Manager, Annie Vaughn as Production Assistant, Erica Harkins as Assistant Choreographer, and Hayden Gray as Assistant to the Director.
