PHOTO EXCLUSIVE: A Two-Show Day at Off-Broadway's Perfect Crime With George McDaniel
Original cast member Catherine Russell, who has been with the show for 25 years (securing herself a spot in the Guinness Book of World Records), is part of a cast that also includes Jack Koenig, George McDaniel, Patrick Robustelli and Richard Shoberg.
According to the producers, Perfect Crime has been modernized over the years. The set now includes a flat screen TV, references to "The Phil Donahue Show" were changed to Oprah and then "the morning shows"; and a reference to a character's net worth has increased from $1 million to $50 million, and now to $600 million.
"The perfect show for "Law & Order" and "CSI" fans, Perfect Crime tells the story of brilliant psychiatrist and suspected cold-blooded killer Margaret Brent, her wealthy husband, deranged patient, and the handsome detective who's falling in love with her."
Tickets for Perfect Crime can be purchased by visiting Ticketmaster or by calling (212) 307-4100. The Snapple Theater Center is located at 210 West 50th Street at Broadway.
