Fall 2026 Production of

Murder, You Must Be Kidding

by Pat Cook

Director Mickey Hockstedder can barely stand the outrageous acting styles of his actresses, and that includes his wife, Clarisse.  Imagine his surprise when a complete stranger named Lionel appears, claiming that his lead actor Daryl has been murdered! Even after the police arrive, no believes Lionel, especially since Daryl is known for shenanigans of this sort.  Snappy wisecracks turn to frightening accusations as Snooky, Barbara, Margo and Lucille continue to rehearse, and the murder-mystery they’re rehearsing starts to look amazingly like real life!  Who is this stranger? What is reality? What is rehearsed? And who forgot the bean dip? This frantic whodunit will keep the audience guessing until the final curtain.

Auditions are soon be announced.

Updates just around the corner.
