About
the Show
Finding a body when you arrive at work is bad enough,
especially one with a knife in its back, but finding the body
gone when the police arrive is even more disconcerting. Fortunately
the ever helpful cleaning lady is on hand to help the police
unravel the crime - whether they want her to or not! This is
a cheerful British comedy with a deadly twist.

About
the Show
Cecily, Reggie and Wilfred are in a home for retired
opera singers when Jean, who was once married to Reggie, arrives.
Jean is still very much the diva, but refuses to sing.
The annual concert to celebrate Verdi's birthday is approaching,
and somehow the show must go on….Is this a comedy or a drama?

About
the Show
The "announcement" is in the local paper, stating
the time and place of a murder to occur in Miss Blacklock's early
Victorian house. The victim is a stranger, and it takes
the determination of the Inspector, with much assistance from
Miss Marple, to provide the solution in this classic murder mystery.
