(CAPE MAY, NJ) -- Cape May Stage presents Murder For Two - The Holiday Edition from November 18 through December 27, 2026. Directed by Roy Steinberg, it's a merry and musical whodunit!

A murder has been committed — and everyone is a suspect. In this madcap musical mystery, one actor plays the ambitious small-town detective, while the other transforms into every suspect in a whirlwind of quick changes and comic brilliance. Together, they trade rapid-fire banter and virtuosic piano riffs in a score packed with holiday sparkle. Murder for Two: The Holiday Edition is a festive, fast-paced whodunit filled with musical mayhem and merry mischief — the perfect holiday laugh-out-loud escape.

With two performers, one piano, and a sleigh-full of outrageous characters, this high-energy comedy keeps audiences guessing and laughing in equal measure. Clever, chaotic, and brimming with holiday spirit, it’s a dazzling finale that wraps up the season with style, sparkle, and perfectly timed punchlines.

Murder For Two features a Book and Music by Joe Kinosian; Book and Lyrics by Kellen Blair.

Performances take place Wednesdays through Saturdays at 7:00pm and Sunday matinees at 3:00pm. Tickets are available for purchase online. The theater is located at 405 Lafayette Street in Cape May, New Jersey.
