“A Little Murder Never Hurt Anybody” by Ron Bernas
It’s New Year’s Eve at the Perry mansion, and Julia and Matthew Perry seem to have it all. But Matthew wants something more – to be rid of his wife Julia so he can have some real fun! He resolves to murder
Julia by the new year’s end, and tells her so. She vows to stay alive, and tells him so. And so the game begins –a hilarious year-long match of wits and the witless. While Julia cleverly dodges Matthew’s devious murder attempts, the Perry friends and staff are dying off mysteriously. It seems Matthew is successful in murdering everyone but Julia.
As the bodies are falling, dim-witted daughter Bunny contemplates calling off her wedding to unwitting Donald since all the intended gift-bearing guests are dying. Enter Detective Plotnik – a Sam Spade reincarnation who suspects everyone, but hasn’t a clue. That is, not until Donald stumbles upon Julia and gentlemanly butler Buttram in what Donald mistakenly perceives as a compromising situation. Donald jumps to the conclusion that Julia is the murderer – trying to murder Matthew!
A Little Murder Never Hurt Anybody is an homage to the screwball comedies of the 30’s and 40’s.

“Delval Divas” by Barbara Pease Weber
Stella Wild, MBA, Rosemary Adams, JD/MBA, Linda Robertson, M.D., Ph.D., and Beth Ziegler, MBA have some things in common. Besides being educated, successful, professional women, they also share the same address. It isn’t a swanky high rise apartment building or a beachfront condo – they reside at the Delaware Valley Federal Correctional Facility, a low-level security prison for white and “pink” collar criminals. With the Warden in one pocket and their cell block guard in another, the “Divas” continue to indulge their lavish and luxurious lifestyles until Beth is prematurely released and a murderess moves in to her place. Adding insult to injury, the Department of Corrections has announced its intention to close the Delval facility due to mismanagement and relocate inmates to the less-than-glamorous Black Rock Federal Prison. How do the Divas save Delval, solve a murder and reunite on a Roman holiday? Who ever said that crime doesn’t pay?
Cast - 6 women
Auditions - March 18th and March 19th
Performances - May 11th, 12th, 17th, 18th, and 19th
