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.

Description: Unable to sleep, Elaine Wheeler paces the living room of her Manhattan townhouse, troubled by unsettling memories and vague fears. Elaine’s terror grows as she sees (or thinks she sees) a murder committed in the townhouse across the way. After several “crying wolf” calls to the police, all to no avail, and a visit from a psychiatrist hired by her husband, Elaine may be on the verge of a breakdown. Should Elaine commit herself to a sanitarium for treatment? From this point on, the plot moves quickly and grippingly as those involved—Elaine’s old friend and house guest Blanche; the inquisitive and rather sinister man who lives next door; and the nosy German maid Helga—all contribute to the deepening suspense and mystery of the play as it draws toward its riveting and chilling climax.
