Coming in the 2010/2011 season - our 62nd!

Our first play of the season will introduce you to Abby Brewster and her sister Martha. They are two nice, sweet old ladies who murder nice, sweet, lonely old men by offering them elderberry wine laced with arsenic. And the sisters' crazy but harmless nephew Teddy, who sports a large moustache and a pince-nez, believes he is Teddy Roosevelt, and often charges up the flight of stairs as if it were San Juan Hill. Teddy digs graves in the Brewster cellar, burying the sisters' victims who he believes are yellow fever casualties working on the Panama Canal. Matters get more farcical when another Brewster nephew, the criminal Jonathan on the lam, and a strange Dr. Einstein arrive with the body of their latest victim. Complications set in when their nephew Mortimer learns of the sisters' activities; and must deal with his crazy, homicidal family and local police as he debates whether or not to go through with his recent promise to marry the woman he loves.
