VC Reporter: Deadly good fun: ‘A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder’ at Conejo Players Theatre

Tim Pompey from the VC Reporter calls A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder “good, dark fun” in his review of our musical comedy.

“Suppose you love British comedy, especially the cheeky kind. In that case, you’ll quickly fall in love with this Tony-award-winning musical that is the complete package of jokes, sex, men in dresses, upper-class snobbery, murder and lively chorus lines — light opera, to be more accurate. The chorus warns the audience of what’s to come in the prologue. They aren’t kidding. But still, it’s like a glorious train wreck. You can’t stop watching.”

The Acorn: A song in his heart, poison in his pocket

The Thousand Oaks Acorn came to our opening night of A Gentleman’s Guide to Love & Murder and critic Cary Ginell gave the show high praise!

“The story is Gilbert and Sullivan meets-Monty Python, a delightful blend of comic patter songs and tragically funny “accidents” perpetrated by Monty on the members of the D’Ysquith family who stand between him and his ultimate goal…  This irresistible, delightfully mad musical is the cure for anyone’s ills.”
