Description
A gripping murder mystery ... ghosts, humor, murder ... actors clawing their way to the top ... ...
Veronica Kennicott meets murder, ghosts, and friends in a small theatre production.Punctuated with dark humor, provocative satire and ghosts, has-beens and wannabes mingle with stars under the spotlights where sex is currency and murder lurks in the wings. The raw, real underbelly of the acting world is a contrary world where the smaller the stakes the more vicious the competition. With the studio system in Hollywood dead, the small theatre training ground emerged. In this mystery, the "play's the thing" as actors fight their way from the seedy Valentine Theatre, once a funeral home, to the big screen. As opening night looms with careers at stake, the multiple rich characters stop at nothing to win their fifteen minutes of fame.
