DEBUT Tasha Weaver is passionate about the Eastbrook Playhouse. She grew up in the regional theater and is now the head of the costume shop. Although Kurt Mozer, the leading man in the new production of Annie Get Your Gun, is disliked by the director and the other actors, Tasha knows how much the theater needs him. He may no longer be a Broadway star, but his name is selling tickets. When Kurt disappears, amid rumors that he quit, Tasha tracks him down and massages his ego, and he agrees to return. When he’s killed that same night in the theater, she feels guilty. Now the theater she loves is threatened again, and one of her friends might be a murderer. Tasha realizes she must turn amateur sleuth to save her friends and the Eastbrook Playhouse. It’s what Tasha does, being a fixer who loves the theater.
VERDICT Playwright Greene brings his love and passion for musical theater to this new series. Theater fans will appreciate the behind-the-scenes knowledge, along with the small details so essential to the atmosphere of this cozy mystery.
