Jake's team in school recently read Agatha Christy's "And Then There Were None".
After reading the novel, the students decided they wanted to write a murder mystery as well. His classmates stayed after school , gave up lunch shifts and spent countless hours writing a script for their murder mystery. Their teachers we so supportive and eventually the idea was hatched to create an evening out of all their hard work. The students decided they wanted to perform their present their masterpiece in the form of a MYSTERY DINNER THEATER.
The night has arrived, we are all kept in suspense as to the plot of the evening.
As we arrived in the school gymnasium, we realized it had been transformed into
the reception hall for a wedding reception. The tables had centerpieces and the head table had flowers. There was even a wedding cake.
The bridal party arrived and the guests were served a wonderful dinner--- just like a "real" wedding reception. Meanwhile the wedding party mingled about the guests.
The "actors" never broke character--- (Jake introduced himself to our table as the groom- Liam.).
The evening progressed much like any other wedding reception---until tragedy hit... a MURDER, then another, and another and another.
We were all captivated and saddened by the mayhem in the gym.....
After all was said and done---- the mother of the bride killed 7 people before falling to her own death of heart failure....
It was a Wedding Reception to remember.
The kids worked so hard on this evening.....and it was WONDERFUL!!!!!!
