ABOUT THE SHOW
Almost every character in this hilarious mystery has the weapon, opportunity, and motive to commit the unseen murder. And it’s up to you, the audience, to decide who actually did it!
Heirs to the tyrannical billionaire Simon Starkweather have the means and the motive to do away with him, but tensions arise when Starkweather gathers his family and employees to announce the contents of his will, his lawyer, Lois van Zandt, revealing controversial news. The rejected heirs are not pleased, so it’s not surprising when they roam the old mansion carrying such items as an ax, a gun, and poison. When Simon Starkweather is predictably murdered, his grandson Simon III is determined to find his grandfather’s killer and solve the case, with the help of detective Mike Davis. The play’s unique ending, utilizing secret ballots gathered at intermission from the audience, determines the killer in this maze of murder!
