Murder by Membership Only at Valley Players Theater

This murder mystery-comedy with an all-female cast occurs in the exclusive Orczy Club, an "inner sanctum" for women mystery writers in London. When the most successful female mystery writer of the day drops dead after dinner, the club members try to solve the case themselves—at the risk of their own lives, since obviously the murderer is one of them. Those present are the owner of the club, (a "big name" herself some years ago), two other successful writers, a mysterious but accepted non-writer, a young journalist, a visitor from America who has just had her first mystery novel published, a much-maligned cook, and a long-suffering secretary. Each of these women have an untold secret which causes suspicion to rise among them. Playing Thursdays-Sundays, March 2-19.
