Mystery Solved!

The Donneducci's and the Duccedonni's have reconciled and the mystery has been solved.

What a great adventure our first murder mystery was.  So many wonderful memories, from the first night of auditions that brought out twice as many interested and talented actors than were required.  To the unprecedented decision to create two complete casts, and the wonderful performances that each cast brought us.

Many thanks to all the cast members for their dedication, for all their hard work, and for the wonderful performances that they brought to the stage.  As their director I could not have asked for anything more!

Many thanks to all of our community members who supported us by attending, by Laughing-Out-Loud with us, and by contributing enough donations to pay for the production.  Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

From all of us to all of you!  Have a wonderful summer, and we look forward to seeing you all again in the Fall.

Arrivederci (to meet again)
