Shear Madness is one of the most popular productions in the world, delighting audiences’ night after night with its unique blend of madcap improvisation and spine-tickling mystery.
This unique comedy-whodunit takes place today in the Shear Madness hairstyling salon and is chock full of up-to-the-minute spontaneous humor. During the course of the action, a murder is committed and the audience gets to spot the clues, question the suspects, and solve the funniest mystery in the annals of crime. The outcome is never the same, which is why many audience members return again and again to the scene of the mayhem. Shear Madness has been interactive and immersive before these buzzwords were invented.
Voted “Best Comedy of the Year” seven times by the Boston Globe and recipient of the title “Best Play of the Year” by both the Chicago Sun-Times and the Philadelphia Enquirer, Shear Madness has also received the Raven Award from the Mystery Writers of America and has been inducted into the Comedy Hall of Fame, the first play ever to receive that accolade. France has honored Shear Madness by awarding the play with the prestigious Moliere Award for Comedy.
Shear Madness is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the longest running play in the history of the USA. This show is also a huge hit for groups across the U.S. creating an experience students or adults will never forget.
