D EATHTRAP A Thriller

Sidney Bruhl, a successful writer of Broadway thrillers, is struggling to overcome a dry spell. A possible break in his fortune occurs when he receives a script from a student in the seminar he has been conducting at a nearby college—a thriller which Sidney recognizes immediately as a potential Broadway hit. Sidney’s plan, which he devises with his wife’s help, is to offer collaboration to the student, an idea which the younger man quickly accepts. Thereafter suspense mounts steadily as the plot begins to twist and turn with devilish cleverness, and with such an abundance of thrills and laughter, that audiences will be held enthralled until the final, startling moments of the play.

Having recently demolished another car, Daisy Werthan, a rich, sharp-tongued Jewish widow of seventy-two, is informed by her son, Boolie, that she must rely on the services of a chauffeur. The person he hires is a thoughtful, unemployed black man, Hoke, whom Miss Daisy immediately regards with disdain and who, in turn, is not impressed with his employer’s patronizing tone and, he believes, her latent prejudice. As the play ends Hoke has a final visit with Miss Daisy, while it is evident that a vestige of her fierce independence and sense of position still remain, it is also movingly clear that they have both come to realize they have more in common than they ever believed possible.

PAL S Million Dollar Duck $

Searching for costumes for their next production, Desmond andQueenie, the “stars” of the local summer- stock company, drop by “Opal’s Antique Junque Shop.” While rooting through Opal’s treasures they spot a nondescript oil painting—a still life of a dead mallard duck and an apple—recalling an item in the morning newspaper about a painting which has disappeared from the local art museum. They suddenly realize that this may be the missing canvas, for which the insurance company is offering a sizable reward. Summoning up all their acting skills, they try to charmOpal into selling the painting, but she explains that she plans to give it to her friend, Rosie, as a birthday present, whereupon the plot thickens hilariously.

Karol, a disillusioned social worker, is trudging home one cold December night when she encounters an old man sitting on a park bench. Mistaking him for homeless, Karol offers the stranger some food -- a seemingly innocent gesture, until he turns up in her apartment claiming to be Santa Claus. Thanks to a malfunctioning security system, Karol finds herself trapped with “Mr. Claus” and forced to confront her feelings about Christmas once and for all in this touching musical battle between cynicism and belief.

Murder Me Always By Lee Mueller

November 15, 2019 Evening November 16, 2019 Matinee & Evening

During a very bad performance of the play “Murder Me Always”, an actual murder takes place off stage. The director is shot! The “fake” murder mystery play comes to a screeching halt and a “real” murder mystery begins. Will this “real” murder mystery be any better than the fake one? Is art imitating life? Is the play really the thing? Is this the original play that went wrong?

To Wake the Dead By Lee Mueller

January 17, 2020 Evening January 18, 2020 Matinee & Evening January 19, 2020 Matinee

Renown Supernaturalist mystery writer Fred Finnegan has died under unusual circumstances. His wife, literary agent, and old friends have all gathered at his wake. Also in attendance are a faction of the Fredrick Finnegan Fan Club, as well as the disembodied spirit of Freddie himself! The wake starts with Irish toasts and amusing stories about Freddie and his life, but the circumstances of Freddie’s death keep coming into question. The guest who would most appreciate answers is Fred Finnegan himself. Problem is, only the nerdy fan Clyde Barker has the gift to “hear” dead people. Can Freddie use Clyde to find the answers he seeks? Was Fred murdered by someone at the wake? He’s dying to find out!

Talk About a Murder! By Lee Mueller

April 3, 2020 Evening April 4, 2020 Matinee & Evening April 5, 2020 Matinee

The Nickie and Ricky Rivers Show is broadcasting live from the road, and it’s a bumpy ride. The D list guests include Vegas lounge singers Shecky Scagnetti and Edie Buffet, New Age guru Celeste Ethereal, home economist Phoebe St. Self, and gossip columnist Polly Pettegolo. Everyone is on the show to plug their own cable TV shows, and what starts out as a yawn fest quickly heats up when egos and personalities clash. It sounds like every other talk show until one of the featured guests is murdered off stage. Can this mystery be solved? Will it help the ratings? Must the show go on? Might as well, there’s nothing else on...

Remains to be Seen By Lee Mueller

November 20, 2020 Evening November 21, 2020 Matinee & Evening November 22, 2020 Matinee

A dead body is found in a trunk on the back of a “U-Move-It” rental truck. Finding the murderer is not as simple as tracking down the last person who rented the truck. The truck has traveled to multiple cities, crossed state lines, and been rented by several mysterious characters. There’s Iggy, the bookie bartender. Madame DuBois, the eccentric washed up film star. Nick Niagara and Edie Buffet, the talentless lounge act. Enter Federal agents Muledeer and Sullen. Was this a haphazard homicide by one of the shady characters or an alien abduction and murder with a major government cover up as agent Muledeer suspects? The answer is out there!
