TICKETS ON SALE NOW

Tickets are now on sale for the upcoming comedy mystery

MURDER’S BAD, BUT MONDAY CAN KILL YOU! by Pat Cook

Directed by Chet Fritz
May 15-19, 2013

Harry’s Back!  That’s right, Harry Monday, that Sam Spade wannabe in the trench coat and gumshoes, is hot on his latest case.  Does he know what he’s doing?  Who knows?  Is he over his head?  Of course!  Especially when he finds three characters murdered at the Restful Glen Psychiatric Annex.  Only after he arrives does he find out that all the inmates have multiple personalities.  And the three murdered victims are all the same guy!
This is the fourth of the Monday Murder Mysteries Trilogy, by Pat Cook, and  Chet Fritz has directed all of them on the JLT stage.  Most of the actors are veterans and have formed a kinship with the zany characters and off-the-wall humor.

Tickets may be ordered by calling the JLT box office, 417 623-3638, during regular office hours, or online www.joplinlittletheatre.org.

This is the last show of the 2012-2013 season.
Watch for announcement of 2013-2014 season.
