Aunt Maggity is a horror novelist who lives on an isolated mountain. She keeps black widows in the bathroom, stuffed cobras on her writing desk and heartbreaking secrets When her four estranged nieces descend on her home for the reading of their parents’ will, everyone’s lives is turned upside down. The plot thickens when one of the nieces disappears and the butler is pushed down a mountain! This play has it all — creepy creatures, suspense and comedic chaos!
Admission is free.
