Originally produced in 1988 at Playwrights Horizons, “Lucky Stiff,” written by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens, is a musical adaptation of the novel “The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo” by Michael Butterworth.

The show follows the escapades of Harry Witherspoon, a shoe salesman, who will inherit $6 million dollars from his recently murdered Uncle Anthony if he will take his uncle’s stuffed corpse to Monte Carlo for the vacation that his uncle never had. The meek young nephew must follow a strict set of instructions that include accompanying “Uncle Anthony” in activities such as high-stakes gambling, sky diving and scuba diving. If he does not follow his uncle’s wishes, Harry’s inheritance will be given to the Universal Dog Home of Brooklyn. Stolen jewels, secret identities, a love interest and a lot of dogs figure into the plot to complicate matters.

Production staff includes Micheal F. Anders, Ph.D., producer and music director; Vicki McClurkin, stage director; Jerry Deall, scenic and lighting designer; Matt Stimmel, technical director; junior communication major Paige Aten, stage manager; Steven J. Brown, choreographer; and Cathy Newell, costumer.
