AUDITION NOTICE

"Whodunit...the Musical"
by Ed Dixon
Directed by Ron Newell
Music Direction by Connie Baltitas

THE STORY:
A  wealthy spinster and her cockney maid take a beautiful Connecticut  summer 
home in 1931. When they arrive, all the help has quit, except for  a very odd 
butler who tells them that something "strange" is going on.  They are soon 
joined by other guests and as they settle in for the  night, someone tries to 
break in, a gun shot is heard and a total  stranger is  found lying in the 
middle of the living room. Then another. A very  austere detective arrives and 
things get REALLY strange... and funny. A  tuneful, hilarious romp that's part 
mystery, part drawing room farce and  all musical.  

Cast of Characters

Thomas Johnson - a very English butler with glasses, a mustache and an 
impressive pompadour.

A Mysterious Stranger - a formidable bald man of 60.
