Death on the Aisle by Frances and Richard Lockridge

Death on the Aisle: A Mr.  Mrs. North MysteryPam and Jerry North are at it again. They just happen to be at a pre-show of a new off-Broadway play when the angel (backer) of the show is murdered. The man is not very nice and there are several people (of course) with motives. Of course, it's not their fault that they are there when it happens but, now that they are, they're going to be involved in the mystery.
The mystery was maybe fairly clued but there was a lot of false information dropped in as well. I had heard about this case on the Classic Mysteries podcast.  He is a little more appreciative of this book but my favorite parts were the interactions between Acting Captain Bill Weigand and his fiancee Dorian as they try to get married.
