Makes for a “never a dull moment” evening of theatre. *CHARACTERS:* *Men:* Edgar Hollister - 50ish. Member of landed gentry, a bit full of himself (also plays Abel Howard). Abel Howard - Police Constable (also plays Edgar Hollister). James Crandall - 40’s. An inspector of Police. Quiet, stolid of manner. Barry Draper - 20’s. Susan’s American fiance, rugged, no nonsense. *Women:* Mavis Templeton Hollister - 30’s. Very recent second wife, very overly dramatic. Mrs. Lottie Molloy - 50’s-60’s. Housekeeper, pleasant, enjoys a bit of funning. Susan Hollister - 20’s. Edgar’s daughter. Big eyed and smiling to the point of idiocy. All actors must be willing to take a “take no prisoners” approach to the production.
