School Play

Student Reporter: Joe Dettmann


When a nerdy nephew, an irritating ex-wife, a stuck up daughter, a ditzy mistress, and a sleazy old mobster are invited by eccentric millionaire Albert Doornale to join him in his mansion one evening, a night filled with mischief and mayhem ensues. When they arrive, Albert is nowhere to be seen. Confused and bewildered, the group proceeds to search for their host, only to find blood all over the upstairs bathroom. Now they must identify a killer and a motive with the help of a washed up police inspector who shows up. Who murdered Al? How? And what was the motive behind the murder?
