The Murray State University Department of Theatre presents "Curtains!" When the supremely untalented star of a musical production is murdered during her opening night curtain call, it is up to a police detective moonlighting as a musical theater fan to save the show, solve the case, and maybe even find love before the show reopens without getting killed himself. Shows are this Thursday through Saturday at 7:30 and Sunday at 2:30 in Johnson Theatre.
The Gentry House is an emergency transitional homeless shelter in Murray dedicated to helping families with children by providing a rent- and utility-free place to stay.
