Writer's Block (Hardcover)

They say that trying out a new musical can be murder. It doesn't help that the show has a terrible second act, that the author has writer's block, that most of the company can't stand the composer/lyricist, that the show's bombastic producer is threatening to close it, that two key people on the creative team are having an affair with the same person, and that the personalities of everyone involved are short-fused and volatile. In other words, it's business as usual in the world of musical theater. But when someone vital to the show turns up dead, apparently of accidental causes, it's time for one member of the production team to become an amateur Broadway sleuth in search of the truth - was the death an accident or was it murder? Set in the world of Broadway musical theater in 1969, Writer's Block is a funny, bitchy, suspenseful tale of the creation of a new musical - from the start of rehearsals, through the tryouts in New Haven and Boston, to opening night and after. The arguments, the fights, the tensions, the betrayals - yes, there's no business like show business.
