Why We Chose This Play

Why Prescription: Murder?

It’s a story about perception—what we choose to see, what we overlook, and how easily confidence can become arrogance.

It’s a stylish thriller with real psychological bite, and it gives our actors rich, layered material to explore.

We’re excited to share this classic in a fresh, modern way, and introduce a whole new group of people to one of the most classic detectives of all time…the one and only Lt. Columbo.

We look forward to having you join us April 17th thru 26th. Just scroll down on your phone, or look in the upper right corner of your computer screen to buy your tickets now.

Inside the Rehearsal Room #2

It’s thrilling to watch the puzzle pieces fall into place.

Before the first line is spoken, the sounds of Prescription: Murder set the tone.

Our preshow playlist gives audiences an early taste of the world they’re stepping into—cool, elegant, and edged with tension. The music will blend mid‑century jazz, atmospheric instrumentals, and subtle noir influences that mirror the psychological cat‑and‑mouse game that is at the heart of the play.

Sound in this production isn’t just background—it’s part of the storytelling. The score and transitions help shape mood, shift power, and guide the audience deeper into the mystery.
