EGAD! THE WOMAN IN WHITE by American playwright Tim Kelley is a comedic send up of the classic English Victorian melodrama The Woman in White by Andrew Wilke.  The play features both a male and a female villain who conspire to lock a young wife in the madhouse in order to steal her vast fortune. The villain is afraid of only one thing – the mysterious Woman in White – a ghostly figure who seeks him out in order to point an accusing finger at him. Who will win the day – the villains or the virtuous?  You’ll find out who while also enjoying period musical performances between the scenes.

The cast includes Peggy Allen, Ann Barfels, Victoria Covarrubias, Aaron Ellis, Elizabeth Hickerson, Victoria Kirby-Schwarber, Stephanie Klein, Alan Kootsher, Larry Mills and Joe Ward playing his second villain at TDW.  Audiences will also be serenaded by musical acts performed by Gretchen Adams, Stefanie Adams and Kent Smith. Linda Abbott serves as the musical director. The play is produced by Valeria Amburgey, Dennis Murphy and Elaine Volker.
