Sam Shovel - Private Eye

Sold Out at OTP! We have added an encore performance as a fund raiser for the Music House Museum, February 7! Get your tickets now.

It’s a hot and sultry day in the gritty city, and Sam Shovel has a dead man sprawled in her office, stabbed in the back with a yardstick. Ends up this is just the first of a string of murders happening in the fashion industry. Though no one would ever think of Sam having anything to do with high fashion, it’s up to the private eye to find the connecting thread and sew up the case. This 1940s detective noir parody Staged Reading will be reminiscent of an old-time radio show, complete with live sound effects, and is sure to leave you in stitches!

Directed by Cathy Louis
