MYSTERY AT THE HOPELESS HOTEL
Script by Ned White.
Music / lyrics by Narcissa Campion.
Cast: 16 m or f, 5 m, 11 f. 80 minutes.
Middle/High School.

Everyone loves a mystery! After failing to solve a major case, ace private detective Jack McKay finds sanctuary with his new identity as a bellhop at the Hopeless Hotel, a seedy place populated by a wild assortment of offbeat characters. When one of the guests is murdered, McKay summons his courage (and all his six senses, who appear as fantasy characters) to unravel the mystery. Rich in stage action, with a single master set, this energetically paced play explores the value of trusting one's intuition, and confronting past mistakes.

BUZZ ON is a fun-filled parody of science fiction movies. A comic musical of killer bees "attacking" a small town, BUZZ ON includes an absent-minded mad scientist, a Queen Bee who acts like Mae West, and a script full of puns. The play has been very popular with young people's theater groups.
