Customer Comments:
By Hiram Lupton - PAMLICO COUNTY NEWS
A murder mystery? In Pamlico County? Indeed, there was as the Pamlico County High School Theater Arts Program staged a two-night performance last Thursday and Friday of the Peter Kennedy play, Alibis. This classic example of a murder mystery theater contained all the great elements of theater - multiple suspects and motives - and before the night was over, multiple bodies, along with well-timed comic relief, made this a delightfully well-performed production. A unique aspect of the PCHS production was two completely different casts each night, a by product of the very popular Theater Arts Class taught by Mrs. Nancy Prescott Potter. Congratulations to her, student director Jaden Ernst and the entire cast and crew for a great performance.

This is the most humorous play I have ever directed--this play is a winner! We presented it with dessert during intermission.

Directing and presenting Alibis was a joy from start to finish. The set was easy and our audience loved us! Thanks for such a great play!
 
Synopsis
Whodunit, howdunit. When famous actress Primavera Donna throws a party and winds up dead, it's up to the guests to figure out who and how, and why the hired help is so annoying. Shades of Sherlock Holmes, Agatha Christie, and Ten Little Indians. As the storm outside rages and the body count mounts, the guests must contend with interruptions, shocking revelations, tacky special effects, and the arrival of a mysterious visitor. Both the action and dialogue are fast-paced and the surprising conclusion leaves only one question: Who gets the movie rights? The cast includes a stuffy butler, a social butterfly, a playboy, a dotty chemist, an aristocrat of dubious origin, a nun who has taken a vow of silence, a part-time detective, a very French maid, and a mysterious stranger. A rapid-fire romp through the conventional drawing room mystery, easy to stage and well suited for ensemble comedy. Ideal for adding other skits or scenes between acts. Interior set.
