A dark and stormy night with stirring laughs: in this comedic  whodunit, set in 1943 at a grand mansion in the rainy Northwest, the  tension  spikes and everyone is a hilarious suspect. Our season opener will delight audiences of all ages!

• Mrs. Shirley Peck: Over fifty. Sweet and unassuming and relentlessly underestimated.
• Detective Paul Peck: Thirties or forties. Shirley's devoted son. An earnest yet rather unsuccessful detective.
• Arthur Whittington: Middle aged. A world-renown writer of murder mysteries. Also, a proud snob. He speaks with a very affected English accent, though he's probably from Missouri.
• Clarice Claythorne: Twenties or early thirties. Dazzling and glamorous, sharp-witted and sly. She wouldn't be out of place in a film noir.
• Dotty Claythorne: Twenties or early thirties. Modest and soft-spoken, excited only by murder mysteries. Though young, she dresses like a Victorian widow.
• Jasper Jamison: Twenties or early thirties. Clarice's fiance. Handsome and dim, he looks fantastic in a swimsuit.

• Please have a list of all conflicts on your calendar from July 30th thru October 3rd
• Bring a headshot and resume (if you have one) to put with your audition form
• Auditions start at 7pm, but the building will open at 6:30pm
