Found unconscious and clutching a gun beside her dead lover, the Beaurevers’ parlor maid, Josefa, is brought before the magistrate on a charge of murder. Upon his questioning, the magistrate finds Josefa’s guileless demeanor so ingenuous that he decides she may not have committed the murder in spite of all appearances. As the investigation is expanded, other suspects appear in the quest to determine if somebody else could have fired that fatal shot in the dark.
Perusal copies of the script will be placed at both the Hyannis and Sturgis Library by December 10th.

Unless otherwise noted above, auditions usually run from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM at the Barnstable Comedy Club.
You will be asked to list any conflict dates that you may have during the rehearsal period on your audition form. Please have that information with you when you audition.
