The Crazy Quilt Club
by Boerne Community Theatre
Nov. 22 - Nov. 23 (2015)
Veronica Blather is a sweet little old lady who spends most of her time knitting and solving murders, most of which occur whenever she shows up. Understandably she has a problem finding a place to live. When her niece invites her to stay at a retirement home for old knitters, it seems ideal - until one of its members dies from drinking poisoned punch. Who did it? Clues drop as fast as corpses and dialogue races along at breakneck speed to keeps the audience in stitches till the last minute!
Auditions November 22 and 23, 7 p.m. Auditions consist of cold readings from the script. No individual appointment times. Pre-auditions may be arranged in extenuating circumstances.
