Dayton Theatre Guild
Oct. 8-24
[Dayton]

Directed by Margie Strader
Produced by Deirdre Root

Cast: Cassandra Engber as Mary, Peggy McDonald Allen as Jo, Heidi A. Porter as Liz, Valkyrie Williams as Amanda, Jimmy Fritchman as Trenner & Alex Carmichael as Jackson/Kirk

Divorcées Mary and Jo are suspicious of their friend Liz’s new boyfriend, who is just plain creepy. He’s a dentist with a copy of Silence of the Lambs in his waiting room and an antique dentistry collection in his basement — and worse, he may be a serial killer! His missing hygienist was just found dead, apparently murdered by a dental instrument. Trading their wine glasses for spy glasses, the ladies try to discover the truth and save their friend before it’s too late.

9/8/21 Covid-19 Policy: In order to help ensure the health and safety of all our audience members, cast & crew members, and volunteers, we are requiring masks to be worn inside our building at all times, except when actively consuming liquid or food. We further are closing ticket sales at 75 per performance to better accommodate the ability for audience members to distance themselves from others, not part of their group, while seated in the theatre.
