Description: Eliza’s dairy farm is under siege: by Caroline, the documentary film-making, grudge-holding heifer she allows into her house to bear witness, for a fee; by Harriet, her inheritance-deprived sister; and by the bacteria lurking in the raw milk lying in wait for daughter Jamie. Woe descends on Red Robin Farm.

And Then There Were None at Laurel Mill Playhouse, Sep 11-Oct 4

And Then There Were None at Laurel Mill Playhouse, Sep 11-Oct 4

And Then There Were None
by Agatha Christie
Directed by Mark T. Allen
Produced by Maureen Rogers

Location: Laurel Mill Playhouse

Friday September 11, 2015 through Sunday October 4, 2015
Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00 PM.
Sunday matinee performances on September 27th and October 4th at 2:00 PM.

Ten guilty strangers are trapped on an island. One by one they are accused of murder; one by one they start to die. In this superlative mystery comedy statuettes of little soldier boys on the mantel of a house on an island off the coast of Devon fall to the floor and break one by one as those in the house succumb to a diabolical avenger. A nursery rhyme tells how each of the ten “soldiers” met his death until there were none. Eight guests who have never met each other or their apparently absent host and hostess are lured to the island and, along with the two house servants, marooned. A mysterious voice accuses each of having gotten away with murder and then one drops dead – poisoned. One down and nine to go!

Produced by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc..

Super Earth

As the threat of nuclear extinction filters through the streets of New York, two men find themselves in an underground observatory wondering what they could have done different with their lives. If only they had one more chance to make things better.

They get the chance.

Ben & Lucille

How do you know when it’s time to call it quits? How can distance bring a perfect relationship to a crashing end? When mediocre painter Ben Schaffer takes the train to meet his academic activist girlfriend at a motel in Philly — he finds that things have changed. As old tiffs quickly turn into political and philosophical wounds — Ben and Lucille must confront the inevitable decay in their relationship, and the possibility of making a clean start.
