Almost every character in this hilarious mystery has the weapon, opportunity and motive to commit the unseen murder, said the play鈥檚 website. And it鈥檚 up to the audience to decide who actually did it. Each of the heirs to the tyrannical billionaire Simon Starkweather has the means and the motive to do away with him.
Starkweather gathers his family and employees to announce the contents of his will.聽 His lawyer, Lois van Zandt, reveals that he has bequeathed vast fortunes to his befuddled niece Fiona, her playboy son Jordan, his great-niece Paula (a 小蓝视频ern belle) and his grandson Simon III, as well as to his many servants.聽
Then Lois delivers the bombshell. Within hours this will becomes invalid.聽 Of course, the rejected heirs are not pleased, so it鈥檚 not surprising when they roam the old mansion carrying items such as an axe, a gun and poison.聽
Predictably, the lights go out, and Simon is discovered murdered.聽Simon III (played by the same actor who plays the elderly Simon) was determined to find his grandfather鈥檚 killer, with the help of detective Mike Davis.聽
The play鈥檚 unique ending utilizes secret ballots gathered at intermission from the audience. At the conclusion it was determined that the killer was the niece Fiona who used pills to poison Simon Starkweather.
