Murders by Jeffrey Hatcher
Directed by Christine Crawfis. Featuring Michael Frohnhoefer, Elizabeth Barrows and Rosemarie Navarra.
Gerald, Lucy and Minka have all been very
naughty! In fact, they
are murderers. They also happen to be residents of Riddle Key
Retirement Community in Florida. That these disparate characters
committed murder is not in question, but as for why...well, that is
left up to the slightly twisted imagination of playwright Jeffrey
Hatcher. Hatcher's keen and
offbeat sense of the ridiculous thrives among the cul de sacs,
manicured lawns and electric golf carts. You may or may not be a
murderer yourself, but everyone will
ultimately be charmed by this glorious evening of crime. 7 PM. Admission
is free. Mount Saint Mary College Whittaker Hall More info

April 17 5th Cold Buffet
Audience and Actor Challenge 8 P.M MMSC's Audience and Actor Challenge
Past Cold Buffets
were such fun that MMSC has decided to mount another
"rematch." Can you take up The Challenge?
In the great tradition of Antiques Roadshow
and Survivor, our pledge to our audience is to once
again assemble a group of our finest readers on one single evening and
our challenge to our audience is to bring in a favored piece of reading
material for these talented folks to read "cold" on that night.
Favorite moments from past
Cold Buffets include Don Wildy reading from Fox in Sox,
Ron Schade reading the section on "Persistent Coughing" from the Home
Medical Encyclopedia, Richard Cattabiani and Bruce Pileggi
reading Abbott and Costello's classic "Who's On First" , Sean Marrinan
reading wine descriptions with just a hint of sarcasm, Janet Nurre and
Jack Kroll reading He Said/She Heard and the whole gang
reading those hilarious Church Bulletin Bloopers.
Whether serious or hilariously funny, MMSC's Cold
Buffet evenings are always a big hit with audiences and actors
alike. Come one, come all. No muss. No fuss. Bring your favorite poem, a
treasured sonnet or just a page from the Yellow Pages.
You bring 'em. We read 'em.
(That's the MMSC Cold Buffet motto. Put us to
the test.)

Stamp collecting is far more risky than you think. Two estranged half-sisters discover a book of rare
stamps that may include the crown jewel for collectors. One sister
tries to collect on the windfall, while the other resists for
sentimental reasons. In this gripping tale, a seemingly simple sale
becomes dangerous when three seedy, high-stakes collectors enter the
sisters' world, willing to do anything to claim the rare find as their
own. Directed by Christine Crawfis Featuring Janet Nurre, Elizabeth Barrows, Rich Hack, Thom Webb and Joseph Jervais-Gayton.
