Warren Manzi's Perfect Crime is a sexy, funny and fast-paced thriller that makes for a great night of whodunit. The longest-running play in NYC history, it tells the story of psychiatrist and potential cold-blooded killer Margaret Brent, her rich husband, a deranged patient, and the handsome detective who's falling in love with her.

Perfect Crime features Catherine Russell, the "Cal Ripken of Broadway," Richard Shoberg (Tom Cudahy on All My Children), John Hillner (star of the Tony Award Winning Broadway revival of La Cages Aux Folles) and TV veteran George McDaniel (The West Wing, ER, Saved by the Bell.)

The Fantasticks, by Tom Jones & Harvey Schmidt, is the world's longest running musical - running for over 52 years in Manhattan and entrancing generations of audiences the world over.

The Fantasticks is a funny and romantic musical about a boy, a girl, two fathers and a wall. The narrator, El Gallo, originally played by Jerry Orbach, asks the audience to use their imagination and follow him into a world of moonlight and magic. The boy and the girl fall in love, grow apart, and finally find their way back to each other after realizing the truth in El Gallo's words that "without a hurt, the heart is hollow".

The famous score, which includes the classics Try To Remember, They Were You and Soon It's Gonna Rain, is as timeless as the story itself.

Starring triple platinum recording artist Aaron Carter and directed by the show's original playright and lyricist Tom Jones.
