Considered by many as "nearly perfect," this is Stoppard at his wittiest. If you love a spoof on an Agatha Christie whodunit, this is the show for you! We originally produced this comic gem in the Outdoor Theater in 1994; Founding Artistic Director Bob Troie directed and designed the sets. We are excited to present it again in the Indoor Theater with Bob's original design as inspiration.
Holly Erin McCarthy is very well known to Cape audiences as an actor, director and playwright. Set Design has been adapted by Ellen Rousseau from the original design by Robert R. Troie, Cape Rep's founding Artistic Director. The production team includes Cape Rep resident costume designer Robin McLaughlin, lighting designer Susan Nicholson, sound designer Maura Hanlon, and stage manager Kaleigh Mason.
The cast of this production features a company of wonderfully funny actors including returning performers Ari Lew, Anthony Teixiera, Jakov Schwartzberg, Trish LaRose, Holly Erin McCarthy, Elijah Corbin, Ian Ryan, Ian Hamilton and Macklin Devine. Joining the company in their Cape Rep debuts are are Emma Joanis and Erica Morris.
All performances will be in Cape Rep's Indoor Theater, 3299 Main Street, Brewster. New this season, more matinees! You asked, we listened! We have added more matinees across the season.
