Above the Fold
by Filigree Theatre

Dec. 14 - Dec. 17 (2023)

Above the Fold is set during the 1935 grand jury investigation of the death of rising musical theater start Evelyn Hoey in Glenmoore, PA. A group of reporters are covering the grand jury whose job it is to determine if there is sufficient evidence to conduct a trial for the murder of singer, Evelyn Hoey by her lover, Henry Huddleston Rogers III, the son of one of the richest men in the world.  Reporter Dorothy Walton finds Evelyn's story especially compelling. 

While the incidents in this play are inspired by true events, this is a work of fiction.
