The Mystery of Edwin Drood will be presented at The Hudson School Performance Space, 601 Park Ave., Hoboken, on Thursday through Saturday, Dec. 9-11 at 7:30 p.m.; and Saturday and Sunday, Dec. 11 and 12 at 2:30 p.m.
The year is 1892. The Music Hall Royale in London (a hilariously loony theatrical troupe) presents the premiere performance of a musical adaptation of Charles Dickens’ unfinished novel,
The Mystery of Edwin Drood. Only one problem: since it’s unfinished, no one knows how it’s supposed to end! Drood vanishes, and leaves behind only one clue: a bloody and torn coat. But is he dead or just missing?
The original Broadway production was nominated for nine Tony Awards, and won for Best Musical Score, Best Book, Leading Actor, Director, and Best Musical of 1986.
Tickets ($15 General Admission, $10 Students/Seniors) can be reserved by calling The Hudson School at (201) 659-8335 ext. 317.
