Shear Madness

Colorado Premiere! By Paul Pörtner

September 22, 2016 – October 16, 2016

This hysterical, murder-mystery interactive farce makes its Colorado premiere after entertaining over 11 million people worldwide including over 38 years of performances in Boston and 28 years at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC. Shear Madness has been voted “Best Comedy of the Year” eight times in Boston and “Best Play of the Year” in Chicago and Philadelphia.

The madness erupts at your not-so-typical Colorado Springs hair salon, when suddenly the old lady upstairs gets mysteriously murdered and everyone’s dying to know whodunit? Get ready to comb through the clues and question the suspects like a bona fide “Shearlock” Holmes. And the best part … It’s different every time you see it!
