Patrons will be in for a treat this year, as the theater company debuts an original musical, "Death at The Devereux," a musical murder mystery-comedy set in the 1920s.

Guests have been invited to the grand re-opening of Bobby Lyle's speakeasy, The Devereux. With Bobby's obsession over his biggest competitor and nemesis, Johnny Bostello, owner of The Brigadoon, the stage is set for murder and confusion.

While respectable town figures and business owners mix and mingle throughout the evening, trying to make a play for taking over The Devereux, the guests (the audience) try to figure out if Bobby Lyle is on the level or if he is the fall guy and will be left holding the bag.

The cast of "Death at the Devereux" are: Phil Williams, Stephanie Lawrence, Lynne Strang, Laura Walsh, Marie Koneczny, Helen Rusnak, Jim Boykin, Terri Grimes-Marin, Charles Hoffman, Jolanda Janczewski, Teri Pierce, Matt Brooks, Teri Meyer, Max Snyder and Daniel Serpati.
