Description
THE TEN MINUTE PLAY THAT WENT WRONG
It’s the most important rehearsal of all for this short murder mystery, ‘Murder in the Gardens’ . The dress rehearsal. The cast is all gathered and ready to go. Even the dog has come along. So, what could possibly go wrong? Add some sesame oil on the crackers for the cast to a highly allergic cast member, a biting insect (sorry, make that insects) infestation in the costumes and a cast that doesn’t really remember their lines too well to create ‘The Ten Minute Play that went Wrong!’
