SPRING VALLEY, WI – The Spring Valley School District invites you to attend their production of “Murder by Ten.” “One little dunce thinks it’s all done. What goes around, comes around and then there were none.”
A Murder Mystery Spoof by Eddie McPherson is produced by special arrangement with Eldridge Publishing Company. Ten dim-witted people have been invited to an old house on Dunce Island with the ultimate purpose – unbeknownst to them – to be murdered.
Apparently, because of his or her dumbness, each was responsible for the earlier death of someone else. Now, one by one, they themselves are done in according to a silly nursery rhyme hanging over the fireplace.
Because they are not the brightest bulbs in the box, the poor victims are murdered rather easily by such things as vacuum cleaner hoses and live alligators. After several murders take place, they become suspicious of each other. When the last person bites the dust and there’s no one else on the island, the question remains: Who the heck did all the murdering?
This is a great parody of one of Agatha Christie’s most popular mystery novels.
“Murder by Ten,” is showing at the Stagehands Theatre Friday, February 7 and Saturday, February 8 at 7:00 p.m. and Sunday, February 9, 2025, at 2:00 p.m.
Tickets are available only at the door. Adults $10.00, Students $7.00. The Stagehands Theatre is located at McKay Avenue, Spring Valley, Wisconsin, 54767.
Come enjoy the mystery and solve it if you can!
