This light-hearted murder mystery (who knew such a thing existed?!) has been wowing Boston crowds for more than 25 years, so you know it's got to be good. Hair-raising hilarity happens nightly on the stage of Sheer Madness, so what are you waiting for? Drop by the Sheer Madness Salon inside the Charles Playhouse for an evening of intrigue and entertainment.

The premises

Sheer Madness starts out at a hair salon, where a number of customers are enjoying an afternoon of pampering. Suddenly, you and your fellow discount Boston car rental friends hear a ruckus from upstairs - the noisy tenant above the shop is playing the piano again! After trying to silence the noisy neighbour in a variety of ways, the shop owner angrily storms upstairs to insist on quiet. During this entire scene, discount Boston car rental travelers have seen a number of customers and salon employees enter and exit the stage, so that when the owner comes downstairs proclaiming his neighbour is dead, there are ample suspects. At this point, the actors turn to the audience for clues, as discount Boston car rental travelers are encouraged to participate in the ensuing investigation.

Can you solve the mystery?

Discount Boston car rental travelers will have a hoot trying to help piece together this mysterious crime, as police question the salon workers, clientele and the audience. At points, audience members are allowed to ask questions of the actors, eventually voting on whodunit, or rather, who they think is responsible. Discount Boston car rental travelers will have no problem engaging with the storyline, as the actors in the cast are quite experienced, and ready for almost any question. Their quick tongues and clever references to popular culture help keep the audience members in stitches. Even though this show has been running forever (it holds the Guinness World Record as the longest running play in American theatre) the writers are quite apt when it comes to including quirky one-liners and jokes about Britney Spears, Rachael Ray and even Paris Hilton. The actors also toss in local references, so be sure to listen for last night's Bruin's score or new developments at City Hall.
