  3. THE SMELL OF THE KILL a Dark Comedy


Take three delicious, malicious housewives, add three miserable husbands—and chill. That's the recipe of Michele Lowe's tantalizing comedy The Smell of the Kill running October 18th to November 3rd. 

Nicky, Debra and Molly have tolerated one another for years at their once-a-month dinners at each others houses. This month's dinner is at Nicky's where her big game hunter husband insists on showing off his recently installed meat locker to the other boorish golfer husbands, while the wives stay in the kitchen exchanging confidences. These desperate housewives begin to bond for the first time as they realize how sick they are of the husbands harassing them from the living room. Molly's husband is stalking her, Debra's husband is leaving her for another woman and Nicky's is embezzling money and only spending it on what he wants. Will they plot to get rid of their husbands together or fight each other when an easy out presents itself to all 3 of them?

 "a deft little anti-love story…light-hearted, cold-hearted…" (Newsday) "a devilish, wicked, ultimately touching dark comedy." (The Berkshire Eagle) "…the play boasts lines and scenes that have the audience laughing as uproariously as The Producers." (Variety)
