Auditions for Studio 1’s next main stage show, SOMETHING’S AFOOT, will be December 16th and 17th.
Location: Studio 1, 309 Huffman Mill Rd #540, Burlington (inside Holly Hill Mall)
Something’s Afoot is a musical spoof that takes a satirical jab at the Agatha Christie “who dunit?” murder mysteries. Ten people are stranded in an isolated English country estate during a raging thunderstorm. One by one they are killed in mysterious (and hilarious) ways as they try to discover the murderer’s identity. The situation is complicated by rising floodwaters, power failures and suspicious behaviors carefully noted by Miss Tweed, an elderly amateur detective.
All performance roles are volunteer.
