And Then There Were None

Eight guests who have never met each other or their apparently absent host and hostess, are lured to the island and, along with the two house servants, marooned.  A mysterious voice accuses each of having gotten away with murder and then one drops dead---poisoned. One down and nine to go! In this superlative mystery comedy, statuettes of little soldier boys on the mantel fall to the floor and break one by one as those in the house succumb to the diabolical avenger. A nursery rhyme tells how each of the ten "soldiers" will meet his death until there are none. The excitement never lets up in this classic tale from the Queen of mystery.
 
The Odd Couple
by Neil Simon

This classic comedy opens as a group of guys assemble for cards in the apartment of divorced Oscar Madison. And if the mess is any indication, it's no wonder that his wife left him. Late to arrive is Felix Unger who has just been separated from his wife. Fastidious, depressed and none too tense, Felix seems suicidal, but as the action unfolds Oscar becomes the one with murder on his mind when the clean-freak and the slob ultimately decide to room together with hilarious results as The Odd Couple is born.
