Passion. Talent. Drive. Desire. What will it take for this eclectic mix to bring a musical murder mystery to the stage? Take one Broadway star, add a cast of young actors with talent, a writer with attitude, a producer with no money and a publicist with a past; and you have all the ingredients for a murder...

Or maybe two?

All set to a vibrant new score, The 3rd Degree tells the tale of Sir Henry Smythe, his wife Lady Penelope and daughter Caroline; each with their secrets, each with their passions, each with their publicity shots.

Publicity shots?

Enter Robert, Andy and Elizabeth, all trying to get this group to opening night without them killing each other.
