Bloody Murder in the Cole Auditorium

The play starts out like a conventional murder mystery, introducing stereotypical characters, including a rich dowager, faded matinee idol, bragging major, ne'er-do-well nephew, prissy ingénue, mysterious countess and devoted maid. They're all gathered at Lady Somerset's English country estate. As the play unfolds, one realizes there is nothing conventional about it.

The play has many twists and turns which keeps the audience guessing to the very end about who did what to whom, for what reason, and who actually is who? One critic called this whodunit a "scream" while another said, "this material is fresh and fun, with revelations that will keep audiences on their toes."

Directed by Marilyn Heberling, the cast consists of Rita Aber, Marilyn Heberling, Christine Orchid, Frank Panzer, Gregg Shults and Daniel Silverstein.
