In 2007, Charlie Parker, who was well known by those involved with the local music and theater scene at the time, became the first director of a group called “Seniors Acting Up” at St. Clair Senior Center. Parker wrote an assortment of witty scripts filled with his snarky humor which began as table readings every Thursday by whoever showed up. Parker has moved away, but the group continues and it has grown a lot since its beginning.
Composed of actors, directors, and crew all over the age of 60, Seniors Acting Up will be presenting “A Plot of Murder,” as a dinner show on April 4 through 6 beginning at 5:00 p.m. at the St. Clair Senior Center in Room 105. Tickets are $10 each.
“A Plot of Murder” takes place during a typical homeowners association meeting. Usually a dull affair filled with complaints about too tall grass and unruly children, this meeting gets rather exciting when an Elvis impersonator ends up dead in the restroom. Soon, Agent McManshon arrives to conduct the murder investigation. While he seems to understand what is going on, he really doesn’t. In this interactive dinner and play, the audience has a little something to say about “who done it”…
