Year’s Eve at the Perry mansion, and Julia and Matthew Perry seem to have it
all. But Matthew wants something more -- to be rid of his wife Julia so he can
have some real fun! He resolves to murder Julia by the New Year’s end, and tells
her so. She vows to stay alive, and tells him so. And so the game begins -- a
hilarious year-long match of wits and the witless. While Julia cleverly dodges
Matthew’s devious murder attempts, the Perry friends and staff are dying off
mysteriously. It seems Matthew is successful in murdering everyone but Julia.

bodies are falling, dim-witted daughter Bunny contemplates calling off her
wedding to unwitting Donald since all the intended gift-bearing guests are
dying. Enter Detective Plotnik -- a Sam Spade reincarnation who suspects
everyone, but hasn’t a clue. That is, not until Donald stumbles upon Julia and
gentlemanly butler Buttram in what Donald mistakenly perceives as a compromising
situation. Donald jumps to the conclusion that Julia is the murderer -- trying
to murder Matthew! <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

4 men, 2 women - ages indicated are approximate (Matthew and Julia, and Bunny

MATTHEW PERRY - Mid-50’s, a man who from birth has had more dollars than sense.
He is facing a minor mid-life crisis.<BR>- BUTTRAM - 40’s-50’s, the family
butler for many years, though convinced he is above being a butler -- at least
for this family. He is given to crying jags, and harbors a terrible
secret.<BR>- JULIA PERRY - Mid-50’s, Matthew’s wife. A classy, intelligent
woman who loves her husband despite his many faults -- and is always a step
ahead of him.<BR>- BUNNY PERRY - Mid 20’s, Matthew and Julia’s sweet, but
dim-witted and deeply shallow daughter.<BR>- DONALD - Mid-20’s, Bunny’s
fiancé. He is very earnest, and very much in love with Bunny, despite her lack
of savvy.<BR>- PLOTNIK - 30’s-50’s, a witless detective. He was born 40
years too late, and read too many Dashiell Hammett novels. (Yes, he can read,
sort of.) He fancies himself a cynical gumshoe, but lacks the savvy to locate,
let alone solve, a crime.</SPAN><SPAN
