Murder by Natural Causes on Sunday, March 4 from 1 to 4 p.m. at the theatre. Callbacks, if needed, will be held on Monday,
March 5.
Director Abigail Manekin will be casting four male and four female actors. The audition will consist of readings from the script. Readings can be found online at

Murder by Natural Causes involves Arthur Sinclair, a successful, world-famous mentalist whose beautiful wife Allison, with the aid of a struggling young actor, plots his murder for the commonest of all motives, greed. Allison’s foolproof plan is so skillfully inventive it cannot possibly misfire—or can it? After all, Arthur (as everyone knows) has psychic gifts—or does he? Filled with twists and turns, this wildly clever and entertaining thriller will keep the audience on the edge of its seat!
