Synopsis:

Lucky Stiff is a musical murder mystery farce about an English shoe salesman who must take his recently murdered uncle's corpse on a vacation to Monte Carlo to inherit $6,000,000. The salesman, Harry Witherspoon, must pass his uncle off as alive, or the money will go to the Universal Dog Home of Brooklyn. The show features mistaken identities, a wheelchair-bound corpse, and a slew of shady characters. 

The musical was written by Tony Award winners Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty, who also wrote Ragtime, Seussical, and Once on This Island. The show has won awards including the Richard Rodgers Award and Washington's Helen Hayes Award for Best Musical.
