The Show: Murder In Buffalo Chip
The Location: Antlers Hotel
The Audience: Dovia
Surprise!
Actually, we don't know why Don is surprised - this kind of thing always happens to him.
Out of the night, when the full moon is bright...
... comes a man called "Bear Claw".
Meet and Greet
Don does his duty to make the guests feel welcome in Buffalo Chip.
Ooof!
The mail-order bride, Mollie Truesdale, vents her anger at the railroad detective with a misplaced kick through Bear Claw.
You can't get me! Na Na Na Na Na!
Just kidding. We actually have much better dialogue for this hostage scene.
Not Shakespearian, but better.
Interest
Mary Kate, the widowed postmistress of Buffalo Chip, may be a "person of interest" in the murder investigation, but the investigators seem to be ignoring her for the moment.
Tough as Leather
Spending long days in the saddle, herding ornery cattle from sunup to sundown, and keeping a wild bunch of cowhands in line can make a woman tough.
Well, OK, maybe she did put on a touch of lipstick before coming to town, but that was only because it's the Saturday night dance and gal likes to get asked now and then...
The Show: Murder Speaks Easy
The Location: Arapahoe Community College
The Audience: Students, Faculty, and Neighbors
These Are My People!
... or rather, this is my place. Don Moon poses in front of Arapahoe's cafe with cast members Liz Duckworth, JaNae Stansbery, and Kimberly Sudol.
The Cat's Pajamas...
Students, faculty, and neighbors came dressed in 1920's style and ready to party.
We like that in an audience.
Net Benefits
What better way to catch a man than with a net?
You're absolutely right!
Mildred Carleton, wife of the police commissioner, discusses stock prices and margin calls with the guests.
All I'm sayin' is, you gotta pay up on your markers, otherwise Guido gets very upset.
Quentin Sinclair, owner of the speakeasy, discusses stock prices and margin calls with the guests.
Ladies! Ladies!
Why is the police commisioner's wife getting into a fight, just like a common dance hall girl?
Hey, I love what you done with the place!
Fast Eddie from the north side discusses comparative architecture with Quentin Sinclair, kingpin of the south side.
Right there - that' s the very spot!
No, not on Miss Temple's dress, but a point of interest on the floor instead.
Roxie, are you tryin' ta ignore me?
Apparently the action has moved over next to the plant.
"Hijinx in the Green Room"
or
"Once a Dancer, Always a Dancer."
