STANDISH — The Schoolhouse Arts Center has announced the cast of “Clue: the musical,” scheduled to open Friday, Sept. 16 and run through Sunday, Oct. 2.
The popular board game has come to the stage with a book by Peter DePietro. Music is by Galen Blum, Wayne Barker and Vinnie Martucci, with lyrics by Tom Chiodo.
The production is guided by two theater veterans, Director Josie French and Musical Director Rebecca Caron, both of Lewiston.
James Gaddis of Westbrook is Mr. Boddy, charismatic host of the game and murder victim; Mia Foley Perron of Westbrook is Miss Scarlet, the sultry but shrewd former lounge performer; Kim Drisko of Portland is Mrs. Peacock, a wealthy socialite with five dead husbands; Topher Hascall of Steep Falls is Mr. Green, successful entrepreneur and con artist; Chris Roberts of Portland is Colonel Mustard; Danny Gay of Westbrook is Professor Plum, super genius with a grudge; and Sarah Flagg of Gorham is Mrs. White, the badly treated housekeeper. In the second half of the show the audience is introduced to Lisa Libby of Parsonsfield as the Detective, who interrogates the six suspicious suspects.
Audience members will pick the murderer, the weapon, and the room in which the murder takes place. No one in the audience or the cast except the victim will know who, how, or where the deed is done, until it’s revealed at the end. There are 216 possible different endings at each performance.
Performances are on Sept. 16, 17, 18, 23, 24, 25 and 30, as well as Oct. 1 and 2. On Fridays and Saturdays the curtain time is 7:30 p.m., and Sunday matinees start at 2 p.m. Tickets are $18 for adults, or $16 for students and seniors.
The Schoolhouse Arts Center is located at 16 Richville Road in Standish.
