A murder mystery is taking center stage at the CIBC Theatre in a Broadway production originally based on a film from the ‘80s.
“There’s a murder right at the beginning, and I’m there to investigate that,” Lewis said. “So it’s that element. But it’s also shrouded in racism. It’s also shrouded in self-hatred, brotherhood — elements of these men wanting to fight for their country, wanting to be respected once they come back because we think that that will help their cause, but we know that that’s not true.”
