Bowie Community Theatre Murder Mystery Theatre presents:
The Cat Screamed at Midnight

The Plot Leading Up to Murder: It is October 31, 1936.

At the English country estate, Conifers, Sir Hugo Smythe Armbruster’s 70th party took place last night. Sir Hugo had been knighted after The Great War for his contributions to the war effort. His brilliant sense of both history and propriety established him as an able publisher whose newspaper, The Daily Truth, kept the citizenry informed of what was happening at the front.The assembled guests celebrated the birthday with enough food and drink to choke the proverbial horse. But, it seems, the horse may have fought back. This morning, Sir Hugo was found dead in the stables. Although the death was at first viewed to be accidental, Scotland Yard took little time in declaring that, indeed, evidence pointed toward murder.

The old gentleman had been a cat fancier, priding himself in the rare breeds that freely roam the grounds of Conifers. It was said that he preferred cats to humans. He had even threatened to leave his vast fortune to The Royal Feline Society rather than have his millions squandered by “fools and scoundrels.” One could only imagine what surprises would unfold when the will is read.

BCT’s Murder Mystery Troupe will present the interactive Murder Mystery on March 15th:

Masked for Murder

Mardi Gras is a festive time – especially in The Big Easy where Krewes of revelers parade through the streets dressed in their unique costumes, throwing keepsakes to the crowds. Each year, the Krewe de Tromperie, a troupe made up of amateur and professional entertainers enthrall those stationed along the parade route with costumes mimicking happy and sad theatrical masks.

Ruling over the festivities, sitting in a prominent spot on the Krewe’s float, is the Tromperie Royale, a masked local celebrity whose identity is revealed at the end of the parade. But, this year, the term “end” had a new meaning, for royalty has its enemies, and murder would make an appearance before the unmasking could occur. Who would camouflage such a foul deed, and what would prompt such an inglorious demise to the royal ruler?

Only keen investigative skills and a sharp eye will uncover the nefarious person who was masked for murder.
