*Directed by ART SUSKIN*

CVLT launches its 84th Season with POSTMORTEM by Ken Ludwig. Several of 
Ludwig's other works, including "The Fox on the Fairway," "Leading 
Ladies," "Moon Over Buffalo," and "Lend Me A Tenor" have been hits on 
the CVLT stage, and "Twentieth Century" will appear at CVLT in the 
spring. Director Art Suskin makes his Ohio directorial debut with this 
production, following a 48-year career staging productions of every 
genre in New York City, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Florida, and the Midwest.

POSTMORTEM features a fictionalized version of real-life actor William 
Gillette, who made a name for himself portraying Sherlock Holmes on 
Broadway in the early 1900s. In Ludwig's story, it is 1922 and the 
anniversary of the tragic apparent suicide of one of Gillette's guests 
at his Connecticut country estate. He has invited all of the friends who 
were present at that time back to his home once more, believing that the 
suicide was in fact a murder, and intent on using his "skills" as Holmes 
to prove the theory.

POSTMORTEM includes all the jealousy, revenge, love story, action and 
humor you'd want in a murder mystery. Gillette (Bobby Thomas) and his 
sweetheart Louise (Amy Broich), an actress-turned-medium who was greatly 
affected by the death of her friend, conspire to uncover the murderer 
with a seance. In attendance are the deceased's sister May Dison (Talia 
Valline), and her actor boyfriend Bobby Carlyle (Whit Lowell), as well 
as Gillette's disapproving sister Marion Barrett (Tori MacNair), her 
husband Leo (James Barron), and the opinionated Lilly Warner (Priscilla 
Kaczuk).

POSTMORTEM plays Friday and Saturday nights at 8 PM, September 27 - 
October 19 on CVLT's Main Stage. Tickets are $18 regular, $14 
student/senior. Tickets can be purchased online at CVLT.org or by phone 
at 440-247-8955 between 1-6 PM, Monday through Saturday. Discounts for 
groups of 10 or more available, as well as dinner deals with select area 
restaurants. Chagrin Valley Little Theatre is located at 40 River Street 
in historic Chagrin Falls Village. CVLT is generously funded by Cuyahoga 
County residents through Cuyahoga Arts and Culture and supported by the 
Ohio Arts Council.
