Rehearsal for Murder

Author: 
Richard Levinson
Director Staff: 
Director: Emily Votta
Asst. Director: Jake Lefebvre

Welcome to 1950's New York, as playwright Alex Dennison turns on the stage work light and prepares for the first reading of his new play.  As the actors, producer, director, and others connected with the latest show come onto the stage, we discover that everyone connected with this play was involved with another play by the same playwright.  At its opening night, exactly one year ago and in the same theater, the beautiful leading lady, who was also the playwright's fiancee, was found dead, believed to have committed suicide.  As these people start with the new play, startling connections to the murder begin to unfold.  The growing tension reaches a boiling point with surprising revelations, countered by others even more surprising.
