CITY OF ANGELS is a Tony Award winning musical written in the contemporary jazz idiom, and a sidesplitting comedy. This spoof of 1940s film noir and hard-boiled detective fiction is set in the glamorous world of Hollywood film studios and flimsy negligees and weaves together two plots – the “real” world of a young writer trying to turn his book into a screenplay, and the “reel” world of the fictional film.

The performance will take place on July 31, August 1-2 , Friday & Saturday at 8 PM; Sunday at 3 PM and August 6-7-8-9m, Thursday, Friday & Saturday at 8 PM; Sunday at 3 PM. -- www.croswell.org
