Project Synopsis
Three comic monologues about revenge, blackmail, sex, money, jealousy, justice and murder. Performed separately, the tales depict desperate passions, old wounds and cold calculations that intersect in the sundrenched world of The Riddle Key Luxury Retirement Village in Florida. Each story is a cat-and-mouse mystery featuring culprits who tell how they decided to commit the perfect crime and what tripped them up along the way.
Additional Information & Safety Protocols: 

We are a readers theatre and as such, actors are not required to memorize lines or learn blocking. It does require actors who are very skilled in bringing characters to life. In addition, since this play is actually a set of three monologues, the Director will determine how best to schedule rehearsals when all actors attend the first read through.
