Gladys Gumshoe has a serious case of writer’s block. Desperate, she implores Mr. Pembleton, the persnickety secretary of Comedy Capers R Us, to peruse the latest murder mystery manuscript for sale.
The story of “Murders and Mayhem at Magruder Mansion” COMES TO LIFE ON STAGE as Mr. Pembleton reads and Gladys gets hyped up on inspiration and twiztelers, freezing the story for edits as her mind is awhirl, moving characters, weapons and evidence, writing four unique and distinct hilarious endings!
With too many nefarious suspects, a goofball Detective Schmuck, a specter-like housekeeper, a hunchback footman, a French maid, a mumbling Russian server, the requisite butler, and a plethora of potential perpetrators, “Murders and Mayhem at Magruder Mansion” is a Whodunnit that asks, ‘Whodidn’t?’!
