Liebe, Mord und Adelspflichten by Lutvak, From (2022/2023), Directed by Thomas Weber-Schallauer, Conductor Giovanni Conti, Stadttheater Krefeld, Krefeld, Germany

After the death of his mother, the young, impoverished Monty Navarro learns that he is actually the scion of a noble English noble family with the unpronounceable name D'Ysquith and that he could therefore become a lord. There is only one tiny problem: within the line of succession there are unfortunately eight candidates ahead of him. Not only to get rich, but also to be able to marry his beloved Sibella, the sympathetic Monty becomes an imaginative casual killer. Everything is going surprisingly well until his murderous strategy suddenly takes a dramatic turn... Four Tonys, including Best Musical, went to A Gentleman's Guide To Love And Murder . The macabre musical premiered in the US in 2012 and impresses with its dark British humor, its endearingly quirky characters and its stirring Broadway sound. The murderous plot revolving around Monty Navarro is based on the 1907 novel Israel Rank by Roy Horniman and was best known in this country through the British crime comedy Adel Obliged (1949) with Alec Guinness.
