Peanut Productions set to perform murder-mystery for local audiences
The cast and crew of Peanut Productions are putting rehearsals into overdrive as they prepare to show audiences their latest play, If It’s Monday, This Must Be Murder!
The play, which will run April 30 to May 3 at Air Ronge’s Elks Hall, is a murder-mystery/comedy by Pat Cook that involves a murder at a country club and a private eye who is brought in to find the killer. It’s been more than five years since Peanut Productions showcased a murder-mystery.
“We like to rotate things, so some years we will do a murder-mystery and then we will do a southern comedy,” said Director Glenys Plunz.
“Our main goal is we always do comedy, and we always want to do family-friendly content. It’s been several years since before COVID, since we did a murder-mystery, and it was time to do another one. Our audiences do like the variety year-to-year, but there are many who also like to get involved in who’s done it and try to solve the clues themselves and see if they can be the one to solve it.”
