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
