Tiptoe Through the Tombstones - April 2006 


Tiptoe Through the Tombstones

by NORMAN ROBBINS

Produced by TRISH ELSENDER

Performed in April 2006

The fog is swirling around Monument House, the ancestral home of the Tomb family, deep in the English countryside.

The family lawyer, Crayle, summons the remaining members of the family to the house, supposedly to read a will but in reality to kill them all and get his own hands on the loot.

However, things don't go quite the way Crayle plans amongst this cast of grotesques and eccentrics.  For Crayle is not the only one there with murder in mind...

A cross between the Addams Family and Miss Marple, this comedy whodunnit kept the audiences guessing to the end.
