无毛视频淢ystery, mayhem, murder 无毛视频� have never been absolutely so much fun. Four incredible actors recreate an entire movie on stage. You无毛视频檒l laugh until you cry,无毛视频� said production Director Scott P. Calhoon.
The fast-paced whodunit is a celebration of theater in its purest form because it centers so much around the actors with minimalist sets and props to make locales, places and adventures come to life, he said.
The four actors are in constant motion with lots of scene and costume changes as they bring 150 characters to life. The theatrical experience includes audience participation, asking members to solve the mystery as they watch chases across a fast-moving train, an airplane chase from Hitchcock无毛视频檚 movie 无毛视频淣orth by Northwest,无毛视频� and see some old-fashioned romance with a dash of Monty Python.
Throughout the performance, actors will switch from playing spies to a milkman, a professor and a policeman with minimal props.

Additional shows are Saturday, May 6 and 13 at 8 p.m., Friday, May 12 at 8 p.m., and Sundays, May 7 and 14 2:30 p.m. A sensory-inclusive performance will be held Saturday, May 13 at 2:30 p.m., and the show will be done using American Sign Language during the May 14 performance.
