About
Welcome to the Theatre!
Got your popcorn and soft drink? Good! Have you turned your cell phones off? Splendid!
Pay no attention to the orderlies strapping you in. It s more for our pleasure than your safety. What you are about to experience will make you squeal, cringe, and by the end, laugh maniacally!
Roy C. Booth, the internationally award-winning playwright who brought us Brian Keene s Terminal: The Play, offers this trilogy of one-act plays to chill your bones, kicked off by a brilliant introduction from Dr. David Beard.
In Death Under the Gaslights, follow three robbers into a house filled with terror. Learn a valuable lesson in Smoking Will Kill You. And in He Who Gets Laughed At Last, see what happens when some people just can t take a joke.
Before the lights dim, we want to thank you for coming. The price was your sanity, but the screams are free.
