Last Call At Chez Mort (Murder Mystery) (Show Dates: April 6-8 & 15; Rehearsals: Mar./Apr.)
Show Description:
Return to the Golden age of the 1940s and the famous Jazz club “Chez Mort”. On this particular night, the club was the scene of a strange accident. Or was it an accident? As newspapers of the day reported: “Ingenue ‘Sweet Sue’ Blutowsky was mysteriously and fatally cut short during her debut singing performance. Inspector Constantine was quick on the scene to investigate the strange circumstances surrounding the shocking events.”

In attendance on that fateful night was the infamous hoodlum Big Suit Stu and his Russian bodyguard or maybe he was German. Anyway.. 

Was Big Suit the culprit? Or was it the ditzy French Emcee Jean Paul Truffaut? Maybe it was the happy go lucky Stage Hand or someone else.
Journey back in time and join the good inspector on that dark and rainy evening.
JEAN PAUL TRUFFAUT- (“Juhn Paul True-foe”) Host and Nightclub manager. A Frenchman with a thick accent. Is sometimes slow to understand what is happening around him. (can be played by female)
MACK – Street wise Stage Manager. Typical 1940’s hard boiled no nonsense guy.
LADY LELU- (lay-lou) Glamorous Night club singer. Has a bit of a hard shell under her beauty.
“BIG SUIT” STU – Sharped Dressed Gangster. Bark much worse than bite.
BODYGUARD- Stu’s bodyguard. Speaks with Russian / German Accent. Not necessarily menacing in stature. A man (or woman) of few words and some of them English.
SWEET SUE- Ditsy Girlfriend of Big Suit Stu. Dreams of being as glamorous and popular as Lady LeLu. Unfortunately has no talent.
CHIEF INSPECTOR CONSTANTINE – Police inspector who has been around the block a few times. Slighlty unkept and shamby. Sometimes has an issue keeping his facts and names straight.
He has worked so many cases they all are starting to run together.
SMITTY: News reporter.
The Iliad, The Odyssey, & All Of Greek Mythology In 99 Minutes Or Less (Show Dates: May 11-13 & 18-21; Rehearsals: Apr./May)
Show Description:
On a simple stage, with the clock ticking in front of everyone’s eyes, the cast speeds through all of Greek Mythology. Its funny, updated, and made easy to understand. The Gods walk the Red Carpet. The Creation of Mankind is a botched subcontractors job. Man and Pandora try settling down despite an ominous wedding gift. Love stories are a dating show and the Greek Tragedies are sports highlights! And don’t forget the two greatest stories ever told, The Iliad and The Odyssey. Kidnap Helen of Troy and you’ve got a 10 year slap-fight of epic proportions with pouty Achilles, war-hungry Agamemnon, and clever Odysseus, destined to wander the seas for 10 more years fighting giants, seductresses, and the Gods themselves. 
Cast of 5 (3 males, 2 females), age range late teens/early 20s to 50+.  This is an ensemble show–everyone has a major role.  Actors will portray a dozen or more different characters each: gods/goddesses, monsters/other supernatural beings, kings/queens, warriors/peasants, contemporary men/women, children/animals. Comic ability, imagination, a willingness to be silly, and a desire to have fun a plus.  Rehearsals start early April, at least 4/5 weeknights and/or weekend days per week; more often the closer to opening.
