November 16-18, 2006
Louis Spilman Auditorium at Waynesboro High School
Directed by Matt Coiner
   
Past Shows: A Party to Murder
by Marcia Kash & Douglas E. Hughes


Co-Producers, Craig Cavanaugh and Charlie Lawson

Six people have come in secret on Halloween to play a murder mystery game at a rustic island cottage. Invited by writer Charles Prince (who writes like Agatha Christie), they appear set for a weekend of fun until ghosts from the past begin to haunt the proceedings and it becomes clear that all is not as it seems. The game takes on a sinister dimension when guests begin to die and the remaining players realize that they are playing for their lives. Valerie (a successful businesswoman) and Henri (her shy younger sister) join experienced players Willy (an retired pro-football player), Elwood (a powerful business tycoon), and his beautiful young girlfriend McKenzie (A fashion model for Vogue magazine.) for a weekend filled with fun, terror, secret passages, and surprising twists!

PAST Production notes

Production is underway for Waynesboro Players' first show of the 2006-07 season. The set is built, the show is cast, and volunteers have accepted positions with production and backstage duties. Promising to be a wonderfully suspenseful show, co-producers Craig Cavanaugh and Charlie Lawson have been working diligently to make sure the Players once again are able to offer an outstanding show to our patrons! They are still putting their heads together on how to "blow up" a pumpkin on stage and on cue! This, along with many other surprises are in store for the audience! Secret passageways, mysterious "hidey-holes," and a wonderful storyline promise to keep the audience entertained throughout!! Be sure to visit our website often as we post more updates and information on all of our 2006-07 season!!
