THE GAME’S AFOOT
A Sherlock Holmes Mystery
By Ken Ludwig
June 6-June 28
It’s 1936, and Broadway star William Gillette, admired the world over for his portrayal of Sherlock Holmes, has invited his fellow cast mates to his isolated mansion for a weekend of revelry. But when one of the guests ends up dead, the festivities in this bizarre house of tricks and mirrors quickly turn dangerous. It’s up to Gillette himself, assuming the persona of his beloved Holmes, to track down the killer before it’s too late! A roller coaster ride of thrills and laughs! Winner: Best Play, Mystery Writers of America Edgar Allen Poe Award!
WALKING ACROSS EGYPT
Adapted by Catherine Bush
From the book by Clyde Edgerton
July 1 -July 19
Mattie Rigsbee is definitely slowing down. So instead of taking in that little stray at her door, she calls the dogcatcher, which unwittingly sets off a chain of events that include car theft, prison breaks, and a juvenile delinquent named Wesley. Armed with only her mouthwatering corn bread and a deep, abiding faith, Mattie is determined to make things right…if she can just stay out of jail herself! A funny, uplifting southern comedy.
NOT FROM AROUND HERE
Original play! Local authors!
by Jennifer Goff and Brian Scruggs
July 22-August 9
It’s 1988, and the Smiths and the Joneses are picture perfect neighbors. They’ve shared everything together—except maybe Carol’s famous lemon square recipe. Even their kids want to get married—after college, of course. Life is good and everything’s as normal as can be …until the Joneses get some news that is truly out of this world! How do you break it to your best friends (and possible in-laws) that you’re moving…about a zillion light years away?! A delightfully zany new comedy by Jennifer Goff and Brian Scruggs. Winner: New Works/Las Vegas Little Theatre Company!
