Western New England University's Stageless Players will present their fall production of Murdered to Death on November 9 and 10 at 7:00 p.m. as well as a matinée performance on November 10 at 1:00 p.m. All performances will take place in Sleith Hall, Wood Auditorium on the Western New England University campus.

Set in England in the 1930’s, Murdered to Death by Peter Gordon tells the story of a friends weekend that turns deadly when an unknown murderer runs rampant. Luckily for them, the hilariously incompetent inspector is on the case. With the help of other characters, the household, and the audience, must attempt to uncover the criminal before another is lost to their clutches. In a spoof of Agatha Christie’s murder mystery style, this comedy is sure to excite even the most unseasoned mystery lovers.

The production is directed by Western New England University students Ava Rule and Sarah Waterhouse and is sponsored by Student Senate, Office of Student Activities and Leadership Development, Department of Arts and Humanities, and the Alumni Association.

Members of the cast include Molly Doyle (Mildred), Aubrey Vargas (Dorothy), Marc Mitchell (Bunting), Jake Glass (Colonel Charles Craddock), Morgan Leclair (Margaret), Bridget Cassidy (Elizabeth Hartley-Trumpington), Michael DeVito (Pierre Marceau), Anna Gauthier (Joan Maple), Andrew Cohen (Constable Thompkins), Jimmy Sullivan (Inspector Pratt).

Advance tickets are $7.00 for the general public and $5.00 for students and seniors, available online at wneu.universitytickets.com. General admission tickets will be available at the door on a first-come, first-served basis for $7.00.
