The Hill Country Community Theatre announces the cast of its winter production "Dial M for Murder."
In the play, Tony Wendice (Glen Bird) has married his wife, Margot (Alexandria Randolph), for her money and now plans to murder her for the same reason. He arranges the perfect murder. He blackmails a scoundrel, Lesgate (Guy Gober) he used to know into strangling her for a fee of one thousand pounds, and arranges a brilliant alibi for himself. Unfortunately, the murderer is murdered and the victim survives. However, this does not baffle the husband: He sees his hireling's death as yet another opportunity. Add in the old boyfriend Max (Patrick Lescarbeau), the detective Hubbard (Randy Hilmer), and Officer Thompson (Corey Bogue) for a battle of good against evil in scene after scene of suspense. This production is under the direction of Mike Rademaekers with assistant director Holden Fox.
"Dial M for Murder," by Frederick Knott, will open on February 18 and run for three weeks through March 6. Performances will be on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 7:30 PM and Sunday matinees at 2:15 PM. Tickets will go on sale February 8 for HCCT members and February 11 for the general public.
