"We're pleased to open this year's season with this particular show for a number of reasons" says Ritz Theatre Co. Producing Artistic Director Bruce Curless. "I feel that this show is perfectly matched to the Ritz audience. We're thrilled to have Ritz Theatre veteran Peter John Rios directing, and we welcome Music Director Michael J. Weaver to The Ritz. And although the show's Broadway production earned four TONY and several other awards, then went on a national tour, The Ritz is the only regional licensor of the show! Add it all up, and once again we bring our audiences something very special and unique!"
Nominated for ten Tony Awards in the 2014 season, this uproarious musical comedy explores the life of the lowly-born Monty Navarro, who has just discovered that he is eighth in line for an earldom.Monty figures his chances of outliving his predecessors are slight and sets off down a ghoulish path. Can he knock off his unsuspecting relatives without being caught? And what of love? Because murder isnt the only thing on Montys mind.
Director Peter John Rios adds: With another round of frantic, stressful holidays behind us, there can be no doubt that the Ritz Theatres 2019 season opener will resonate with so many of you in our audiences. In a show about climbing up the ladder of influence over the backs of horrible family members, who wouldnt want to take care of that annoying cousin that drank too much at your party?
A Gentlemans Guide to Love and Murder killed on Broadway! No doubt thats because this marvelous show gives audiences the guilty pleasure of seeing despicable people get what they deserve. And we can sure use that right about now.

The Ritz Theatre Company was founded over thirty years ago to bring live, quality, professional productions to our region and were still doing it today.
Throughout our history, we've aspired to make theatre accessible to everyone, to entertain our audiences with favorites, to challenge them (and ourselves) with complex works, to provide on-stage training for actors, to introduce kids to the magic of live theatre, and to help restore the historic building we call our home.
Managed by our staff, supported by a dedicated volunteer base, bolstered by our loyal subscribers, sustained by our generous sponsors and donors, and guided by our Board of Directors, the Ritz remains a gem in the community we gratefully serve.
Please join us!
