When the leading lady mysteriously dies on stage the entire cast & crew are suspects. It's up to Lt. Frank Cioffi, a police detective who moonlights as a musical theater fan, to save the show, solve the case, and maybe even find love before "Robbin' Hood" reopens, without getting himself or anyone else killed. Bring your whole family to the musical that everyone is DYING to see!
