This year’s fall play is Mystery at Whimbowly Manor. It is an exciting yet family friendly mystery show set in the 1940s. A short overview of the play from Concord Theatricals:
“When Lady White’s diamond necklace disappears after a dinner party, a police detective is called in to find out where the prized possession has gone. The case seems simple enough to Lady White’s husband and daughter, but when bumbling detective Bradley Baxter arrives and sends the household into disorder and frustration, the case becomes anything but simple. Neighbors are invited and not allowed to leave; accusations fly left and right; and comical misunderstandings multiply. And Detective Baxter is bound and determined not to leave until he can proclaim, ‘Case Closed!’ at Whimbowly Manor.”
Senior Lucy Noem says about the play: “Everybody is laughing, it’s going great. Our main challenge is to get people to control laughter.”
Shows are on Thursday, October 24 at 7 PM and Friday October 25 at 2 PM at Washington Hall. Make sure to come out and support the cast as they have been preparing for months for the show!!
