Curtains, Drury Lane Oak Brook, through May 17. Think Noises Off meets 42nd Street meets The Mousetrap in Kander and Ebb’s frothy musical murder mystery. A singing detective, a temperamental director, a bird-brained ingénue—all the usual suspects are onstage for sleuthing shenanigans after a diva turns up dead. CS

Hubbard Street Dance Chicago, Harris Theater for Music and Dance, through April 5. Chicago’s most famous modern dance troupe is back in town for its Spring Series, which includes the world premiere of Alejandro Cerrudo’s new dance piece, Off Screen. SCM
