<div><strong><font size="4">This wonderful play is one in which people similar to the Wizard of Oz characters meet a murder mystery in the genre of The Maltese Falcon. Dot, a down on your luck entertainer, is given the opportunity of a lifetime. The only catch is that she has to travel cross country to gain her prize. Along the way, she meets three people who help her beat a horrible person who is prone to murder. The question is did she commit a murder or was it someone else? </font></strong></div>
<div><strong><font size="4">The play is at 6:30 pm with dinner prepared and served by Elm Ridge Party Center at 5:30 pm. The cost of the dinner and play is $36.00 which includes a ride on the St. Helena III, while the play is going on. Thus, you get a three in one package.</font></strong></div>
