SYNOPSIS
The troupe's ambitious 1920s whodunit has everything you never want in a show: falling props, collapsing scenery, an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can't play dead, and actors who trip over everything… including their lines. How will this eager ensemble battle against all of the disastrous odds?
