Synopsis: A sunny room on an upper floor is prime real estate in the Bristol Place Senior Living Facility, so when the cantankerous Abby is forced to share her quarters with new-arrival Marilyn, she has no choice but to get rid of the infuriatingly chipper woman by any means necessary. A seemingly harmless bet between the old women quickly escalates into a dangerous game of one-upmanship that reveals not just the tenacity of these worthy opponents, but also deeper truths that each would rather remain hidden.

Synopsis: Based off the cult classic movie from the 1980s. It's a dark and stormy night, and our cast of oddball characters has been invited to a very unusual dinner party. Each of the guests has an alias, the butler offers a variety of weapons, and the host is, well, dead. So whodunit? Join the iconic oddballs known as Scarlet, Plum, White, Green, Peacock and Mustard as they race to find the murderer in Boddy Manor before the body count stacks up. Based on the cult classic film and the popular board game, Clue is a madcap comedy that will keep you guessing until the final twist.

SEEKING:

WADSWORTH – A traditional British butler in every sense: uptight, formal and by the book. He is the driving force in the play.
YVETTE – A loyal and sexy French maid.
MISS SCARLET – A dry, sardonic D.C. socialite, more interested in secrets.
MRS. PEACOCK – The wealthy wife of a senator. A bit batty, neurotic and quick to hysteria.

COLONEL MUSTARD – A puffy, pompous, dense blowhard of a military man.
PROFESSOR PLUM – An arrogant academic, easily impressed by himself.
MR. GREEN – A timid, yet officious, rule follower. He's awfully anxious.
ENSEMBLE WOMAN: Multiple roles including: THE COOK – A gruff woman with a threatening presence (Alive and Dead). SINGING TELEGRAM GIRL – A tap dancer with a heart of gold (Alive and Dead). AUXILIARY SCARLET – The back of Miss Scarlet during a scene of theatrical trickery. BACKUP COP – Backup for the Chief in the very final Cops entrance.
ENSEMBLE MAN 1: Multiple roles including: MR. BODDY – A slick, Frank Sinatra, film noir-esque type fella (Alive and Dead). THE MOTORIST – A professional driver (Alive and Dead). CHIEF OF POLICE – A cop who helps to save the day.
ENSEMBLE MAN 2: Multiple roles including: THE UNEXPECTED COP – A regular joe (Alive and Dead). BACKUP COP – A backup for the Chief. AUXILIARY MUSTARD – The back of Colonel Mustard during a scene of theatrical trickery.
