St. Albert Dinner Theatre is pleased to welcome back Stuart L. McGowan as the director for the murder mystery Wrong Window! by Billy Van Zandt & Jane Milmore.
SYNOPSIS:
Off-and-on again New York couple Marnie and Jeff enter an even more complicated phase of their relationship when they think they spy their cross-courtyard neighbor do away with his wife. After they draw their torn curtain, the lady vanishes, and suspicion places murder beyond a shadow of a doubt.
The bumbling witnesses sneak into their neighbor’s apartment – 39 steps away – and the fun begins. With mistaken identities, extramarital affairs and a corpse popping up, two questions remain: Who killed Lila Larswald? And if she’s not dead then who is?
- Marnie Elbies (f.) Married to Jeff, murder mystery writer. Has just rekindled her marriage after a separation and likes spying on her neighbours.
- Jeff Elbies (m.) Married to Marnie, all around nice guy. Except he’s hiding his affair. And he’s afraid to go outside because of a past bird attack.
- Midge Smith (f.) Married to Robbie. Marnie’s best friend. Quirky.
- Robbie Smith (m.) Married to Midge. Jeff’s best friend. Will do almost anything to help out his friend.
- Lila Larswald (f.) Married to Thor Larswald. Yoga instructor, fit.
- Thor Larswald (m.) Married to Lila Larswald. Large man.
- Loomis (m.) Building maintenance man. Not the sharpest knife is the drawer.
- Detective Thomas (m/f) Quintessential police detective
