About the show:

A happy housewife named Marsha, hopelessly addicted to reading murder mysteries, overhears her loving husband discussing her upcoming birthday surprise. To her ears, though, it sounds like they are planning to murder her. What will Marsha do? How will the birthday surprise turn out? This is a terrific show for audiences who like their comedy broad, fast and nonstop.
This show is a dinner theater, which means audience members will eat their meal at tables while watching the show at the theater. The dinner will be provided by Hidden Pines Bar & Grill.
 

Meet the cast/crew:

Raquel Hellman plays Marsha Gilmore along with Bill Schnell as her husband, Tobias Gilmore. Marsha’s mother, Lynette, is played by Kristin Sellentine. Brian Bedard portrays Virgil, their next-door neighbor. Bianca, the Gilmores’ maid, is played by Thea Nixon. Tim Heroff and Jeff Goihl share the role of Ben Quade, Bianca’s boyfriend. Olivia Hertel portrays Persis Devore, a lady with a secret. The show couldn’t go on without the help of Karl Huppler (producer), Lycus Flaherty (light controller), Ingvild Herfindahl (costumer), and Karl Huppler, Dan Roth and Bob Andrist (set crew).
