DSC's Theatre Department will present its second-annual "The Comedy Storm" summer theater series in the Laboratory Theater located inside the Dolores Dore Eccles Fine Arts Center on the DSC campus. The second season will include two comedies presented in repertory, The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940, by John Bishop on Thursday and Saturday evenings, and Fred Carmichael's Exit the Body on Friday and Monday evenings.

The productions will open on Thursday, June 24, and will run through Saturday, July 24. Each performance will start nightly at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are available now for just $10. For tickets and further information, please call 435-652-7800 or visit the central campus ticket office at the DSC Avenna Center. Patrons may also purchase tickets prior to each evening's performance at the Eccles Fine Arts Center Box Office or online at "tickets.dixie.edu."

Additionally, DSC's Theatre Department will host a special half-price preview event prior to official opening of each show's run, featuring The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940 on Tuesday, June 22, and Exit the Body on Wednesday, June 23. Both preview performances will begin at 7:30 p.m. The run will also feature a pair of Saturday matinees beginning at 2 p.m., with Musical Comedy Murders on July 17th, and Exit on July 24th.

The Musical Comedy Murders of 1940 tells the story of a creative team responsible for a recent Broadway flop, where three chorus girls were murdered by the mysterious "Stage Door Slasher" during production. The team reunites for a backer's audition of their new show at the Westchester estate of a wealthy "angel," complete with sliding panels, secret passageways and a German maid who is apparently four different people – all of which figure diabolically in the comic mayhem that follows when the infamous "Slasher" makes his reappearance and strikes again – and again.
