Synopsis of Play:
Reading of the Will has never been this hilariously sinister . . . or this filled with outrageous, cut-throat family members all vying for the millions left to unlikely heirs. You’ll meet the various Tomb Family members, one by one, each one more bizarre than the last. Be prepared to be ‘serenaded’ by werewolves, ‘entertained’ by Julius Caesar, and even ’embedded in the garden’ by a sweet little old aunt who plants more than just seeds in her flower beds. By the end of the show, there are more corpses than live members left in the cast. All is revealed as the plot twists and turns to its surprising conclusion.
