A Murder But Not A Mystery

Faux-aristocrat and downtown cult-icon Renaldo The returns to 3LD with The Curse of The Mystic Renaldo The.

The "love child of John Waters and Jim Carey" is resurrected to continue on his demented quest for artistic glory.

Tickets: $20 @ www.theatermania.com or 212.352.3101 Walk-ups welcome! Student Rush available at the door.

During construction of the 3LD space, a lost silent movie was found buried beneath a concrete slab. Using revolutionary technology, 3LD was able to restore this film, which may have documented the shocking murder of frowzy aristocrat Renaldo The, the legendary figure of incompetent amusement.

In a quaint hotel in 1920's Western Europe, Renaldo's jazz-era death dream is recreated in all its absurd glory. Has one of history's greatest mysteries finally been solved, or is this another of Renaldo's vain attempts to secure some sort of oddball legacy? A hilarious fusion of virtuosic musical performance, slapstick comedy, horror and noir, The Curse of the Mystic Renaldo The is a side-splitting send up of "serious" art forms.

Starring Aldo Perez as Renaldo The, his long-suffering yet ever-faithful valet played by Richard Ginnoccio and Jennifer Mitchell as the chambermaid who stole the great Mystic's heart. Directed by Victor Weinstock, with live music performed by NYC's critically acclaimed art-rockers Psycho the Clown.

Presented by 3-Legged Dog.
