About
the show...
The not-so-beloved
matriarch of the Capote clan has been murdered at
dinner before the entrée could even be served!
Who done it? Could the guilty party be one of her five grandchildren?
The twins, Stump
and Will Slatterly (Constance Saxon and Tommie Worrel),
aren’t the brightest combination, but you can’t
write them off completely.
Granny Mag (Ryan Young) was none too pleased
when their mother married a sharecropper. Will
wrestles alligators for a living so he’s no stranger
to danger!
And then there’s
Maggie St. Lawrence (Mamie Fike Simonds) – you have
heard of Ms. St. Lawrence, haven’t you? She used to be a Broadway star.
Grandmother’s refusal to give her the money
to relaunch her career might have pushed her to the
limit. Of
course, her cousin Magnolia Woods (Mary Beth Weber)
could also be to blame.
Her recent disastrous affair and the failure of
her modeling career has left her in a rather unstable
condition.
No one has seen
much of the bitter recluse, Nolie Frost (Bly Beach)
lately. She retreated to her moldering mansion at
Cypress Acres when her Grandmother Magnolia drove her
lover, John Layhew, away.
Plenty of motive there, too!
And then there’s
always her beloved son, Louisiana Capote (also played
by Ryan Young). Things
may not have been as amicable between mother and son
as we have been lead to believe.
The family lawyer,
Ben Parker (Steven Thiel), might have more information
than he is willing to share with the family.
After all, he drew up Magnolia Capote’s will
and was trusted with all her legal affairs.
But… can you ever really trust a lawyer?
Never fear,
Sheriff AJ Watkins (Sam Hopkins) will do his darndest
to solve the crime – unless he gets too caught up in
trying to find the half-million dollar prize before
the rest of the family dinner guests.
That’s right!
Before her untimely death, Mrs. Capote has
hidden the clues to a $500,000 prize in the Towering
Oaks Hotel (The Crawford Depot).
Come join in the fun as the Capote clan and
friends show their true colors searching for the money
– and the killer!
