About the project: SYNOPSIS: A murder has been committed, and the two killers host a dinner party in the very room where the victim’s body is hidden.

This thrilling show will captivate anyone who has ever been tempted to get away with something. Rate: LORT Non-Rep $889 weekly minimum (LORT D) Additional info: Audition lunch 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
