A hard-boiled 1940s Manhattan newspaperman, sent to photograph a crime scene, goes on the lam with the suspect in Morwyn Brebner' s new hit play-the first-ever film noir/social drama/musical comedy! Little Mercy Callaghan has led a sheltered life. But her fugitive night with Weegee takes her from a four-alarm fire to a high society gala ... and a nightclub where the floor show isn' t the only entertainment. A hilarious romp from one of Canadian theatre' s truly original young voices, Little Mercy' s First Murder celebrates an awakening to the world in all its seedy magnificence.
