Everyone's heard of a haunted house. Probably even a haunted theater. But a haunted play? Could it be haunted by the spirit of a man who died recently in the theater? No... it's not possible! At least, that what theater director Bonnie Bagwell tries to convince the other members of the troupe as writer Colin Chambers hints at the trail of horror that has cursed his script, Ax of Murder. Unfortunately, curiosity gets the best of the actors and, despite Colin's adamant warnings, they open the script and start reading the play. It soon becomes apparent the play is mirroring their theater and even specific actors. "The play changes with each performance," Colin intones, through he's not taken seriously. But when the police sergeant shows up on cue stating he was called in on a murder, people begin to wonder. Wonder turns to fear when someone IS murdered onstage! And it seems as know one could have done it, no one, that is, except perhaps a ghost. Your audiences don't know what or who to believe. Characters show up in all areas of the theater, running down aisles then disappearing. Murder weapons disappear and then show up in the worst places. Beware the twists and turns of this play. You never know what is going to happen next!
