No one is ever what he or she seems and every event is bizarre in this whodunit.  In a cosy English country house owned by a famous mystery writer, a young guest walks in and they begin a convivial round of scotch and dialogue.  The games that are devised, the murders plotted and subverted, add up to increasing suspense and unsolvable crime.

“What do you do when you’re not sure?” Father Flynn asks the audience in the opening line of this play, setting the stage for a story of suspicion and moral uncertainty.  His colleague, Sister Aloysius, is an old school nun who insists that her students not be coddled:  “Every easy choice today will have its consequence tomorrow.  Mark my words.” Flynn, following the Second Vatican Council’s directive, believes the clergy should be more accessible to the parish and be thought of “as members of their family.”

Matinee

March 29, 2008

Showtime: 2:15 p.m.

 

Directed by Debbie Ormston

 

Set in Buffalo, New York, Over the Tavern carries us back to the Eisenhower era of the 1950’s .  It introduces us to the Pazinski’s, who live over the bar they own.  There’s Mom, Dad and their 4 children: Eddie, Annie, Georgie and the hero of the tale, 12 year old Rudy.  A precocious kids, this Polish-Catholic “Neil Simon” is about to become confirmed.  When he suddenly changes his mind, he throws not only his family, but the whole neighborhood and parochial school into turmoil.  Dudzick’s semi-autobiographical portrait of his loud and sometimes loony clan is a nostalgic portrait shared with both humor and love.

The Broadway hit  Chicago won six Tony awards including best revival.  In razzle-dazzle, roaring twenties Chicago, married chorine Roxie Hart murders a faithless lover.  Roxie and another murderess on death row vie for the spotlight and the headlines, hoping the publicity will catapult them to fame, freedome and successful stage careers.  This sharp-edged story of murder, exploitation and treachery features a dazzling score that is sure to spark some amazing choreography from local Marc Holland.
