An Evening at the Theatre
I have a cousin who was in the Richardson Community Theatre production of Agatha Christie's The Hollow. The theatre was in a shopping center off of Custer. It was a small operation, but seemed to be well run. David & I paid for our tickets, got our playbills, and waited until it was time to be seated.
We told the usher our last name, and he showed us to to our seats. The theatre was very small, seating maybe 50-60 people. After a few minutes, the play began. My cousin was one of the female leads in the play. It was a murder mystery, set in the 1950s, in the South. It took me a few minutes to get used to my cousin talking in a deep Southern accent, but overall, the cast did a great job!
The basis of the story is a couple who is visited by several other people. There are a couple of love triangles and someone winds up being shot. The rest of the play was figuring out who had done it. Several people had a motive, but it really surprised me with who the killer was! It was a very enjoyable evening and something that we will definitely have to do again!
Unfortunately, we did have a minor snag as we were leaving. David's car wouldn't start. Luckily, we got someone to jump start our car (ironically, it was the murder victim, who did a great job of being a jerk in the play) who got us on our way. It turned out to be the battery, which David replaced today. Except for that, it was really a top notch night!
