Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder November 17, 2013 | 07:30PM PT

This witty and adorably wicked new musical stars the endlessly inventive Jefferson Mays in multiple roles, all of them murder victims.

Marilyn Stasio

How very daring — a witty musical about a serial killer that Stephen Sondheim didn’t write.   Fashioned from the ingeniously absurd plot of the novel that inspired the classic Alec Guinness film comedy “Kind Hearts and Coronets,” “A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder” proves an ideal vehicle for the versatile talents of Jefferson Mays.   Reveling in his multiple roles, Mays plays eight wacky members of a noble family doomed to die at the hands of a distant heir who covets the family title and fortune.  The English music hall format is the perfect performance style for this adorably wicked show.

Yale Vice President for New Haven and State Affairs and Campus Development Bruce Alexander ’65 with Toni Harp ’78 M.Env.D., who will become New Haven's new mayor in January 2014, and Yale President Peter Salovey ’86 Ph.D. Both Harp and Salovey came to New Haven for their graduate education at Yale.

The Apple store opened on Broadway two years ago. New Haven was one of just five new retail locations for Apple in the quarter the store opened here.

The popular Claire's Corner Copia has been in the city for nearly 40 years, and is now flanked by newer businesses.

SAVE THE DATES: THE WEEKS OF MARCH 3 - APRIL14, 2014
YALE ALUMNI COLLEGE WILL AGAIN OFFER AN EXCITING AND BROAD ARRAY OF STIMULATING SEMINAR TYPE COURSES IN THE SPRING ON AT LEAST TWO CAMPUSES ALONG WITH A STUNNING SOCIAL GATHERING AT THE END OF THE SEMESTER.
DON’T MISS OUT - SIGN UP STARTING JANUARY 6, 2014!
We are again delighted to announce Yale Alumni College’s Spring 2014 semester which will hold courses at the Yale Club in New York starting on Monday, March, 3rd, and at Rose Alumni House on Tuesday, March 4th and/or Wednesday, March 5th. These post-graduate, non-credit courses in New York and New Haven are open to Yale alumni, their family members and friends in seminar format with 10-25 participants.
All of these courses will be conducted by Yale-associated faculty – some of whom are Yale professors emeriti, and others of whom are currently active as Yale faculty members. Each 1½ hour class will run for six sessions per semester with a reasonable amount of reading in advance of each session.
Opportunities for engagement beyond the classroom are available; for example, in the fall of 2012 we journeyed around Manhattan Island on an architectural cruise, in the spring of 2013 we had a terrific experience at the Cloisters with two Yale Ph.D. students as guides. In the fall of 2013 we traveled to the Storm King Sculpture Museum and had an amazing tour lead by a current Yale student and a class participant.
Course information, professor bios, locations, days and times and registration will be available starting Monday, January 6, 2014.
If you have any questions, contact Barbara Burt at the AYA at barbara.burt@yale.edu or 203-432-1990.
See you in the spring!
