Mystery at Senior Manor

 

Mystery At Senior Manor is set in 2021, during Covid. The facility has been separated with each wing becoming its own pod having a single common room. The purple pod is made up of six residents serviced primarily by two staff members. One of the purple pod seniors is missing! Who? Why? Where? Are just some of the questions that must be answered! It's Funny! It's Suspenseful! It's a Mystery!

This is show is geared toward audiences over 50 years old.


Stranger at Senior Manor

 

Stranger At Senior Manor is set about a year later and restrictions have been relaxed. Now residents are allowed one visitor at a time in the common room. Today is the day Bernice has a guest. It is a very special, and exciting day for all the ladies. What happens when the gentlemen find a stranger there, and 'try to protect their turf' – mayhem.

This is show is geared toward audiences over 50 years old.


Christmas at Senior Manor

 

Christmas at Senior Manor will be offered annually but only between Thanksgiving and Christmas. In this show we find that some of the residents have gone with their families for the holiday. Those who stay are having their own special Christmas – reliving their traditions and creating new ones. Plus, the resident director has organized a surprise that no one would expect! And everyone will enjoy!!

This is show is geared toward audiences over 50 years old.


Rupert Meets Mrs. Tales

This interactive play is about Rupert, a pack rat who does not like to read. However, he has a book report due for school, so his mother drops him off at the library. Soon Rupert meets numerous storybook characters through the magic of books. Not knowing any of the characters, the audience comes to his rescue, showing Rupert that reading can be fun!

Rupert Meets Mrs. Tales was originally commissioned for and by the International Reading Association in 1976 as a play that showcases the benefits of reading. It has been touring somewhere in Pennsylvania almost ever since.

This is show is geared toward audiences in grades K-4. We highly recommend a multi-generational audience as that makes for a more interactive experience.
