Description: Arthur is a successful mystery writer whose latest work has strangely turned into a romance–a vivid and adulterous romance. His son, his second wife and his editor marvel at the truthfulness of the work, remarkable since it is inconceivable that he could ever have had such an affair. Enter a woman, who is intent on blackmail and whose story is foolproof and airtight: it appears that Arthur has been trysting away from home. Cunning, deceit and ingenious plotting twist and turn this thriller into a surprise ending—is this real or an act of his imagination?

Rockbridge Academy presents their 2016 musical production, You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown! The musical will be performed February 25-27, 2016. For those of you who are not familiar with the musical version of this beloved comic, you are in for a great treat. This musical majors in laughter, simplicity, friendship, and childhood – all infused with the ageless wisdom of Charles Schultz. Broadway audiences loved the 1999 revival version, and the show was nominated in 14 categories for the Tonys that year. We will be performing the 1999 version for our very own audiences, and it is appropriate and fun for all ages from preschool to great-grandparents!
Ticket prices are $15 for adults and $13 for children 12 and under.
Tickets may be purchased at the box office 1 hour before each show or online at: https://www.rockbridge.org/ticket-sales

BCT’s Murder Mystery Troupe will present the interactive Murder Mystery
Love Writes a Deadly Verse
Love is in the air at the Valentine’s Day meeting of the Poets Turntable as the group of amateur and professional writers focuses on amore, liebe – yes, LOVE! Romance abounds when each member rises, in turn, to thrill the audience with similes, metaphors, and word pictures that make even the coldest hearts beat faster.
Who could keep a dry eye as words of passion flow from the lips of the talented troupe of winsome wordsmiths? Surely, the night would be one when emotions take the front row and thoughts of ill will are left dangling in the wind. After all, the spoken word is the expression of deep-seated feelings.
But, in the middle of this memorable assemblage, one of the poets staggers to the stage and, after uttering a few cryptic words, is overtaken by death. Someone has done in a fellow Turntable member in the midst of one of the year’s most sentimental events.
Who would spoil this spectacular meeting with such a dastardly deed? And, was this an act that had been planned, or simply a crime of passion at a moment when true feelings were allowed to flow?
But in a very real sense, it’s time for poetic justice as everyone gathers to investigate the death and to find the clandestine culprit who turned Valentine’s Day into a bad rhyme.
Join us on February 17, 2016!
