Murder At The Howard Johnson’s

October 4, 2011 / Posted by in News

Murder at the Howard Johnson’s is an uproarious screwball comedy, about a love triangle and three murder plots that all take place at a Howard Johnson’s Motor Inn.  This production is set during the height of the Great Depression – times are tough, desperation is in the air – and Arlene’s passion-less marriage to Paul has her wanting for more.  Much more.  That’s where Mitchell comes in – he’s their dentist, and also Arlene’s secret lover.  Act one – Arlene and Mitchell meet at the HoJo’s to kill Paul, but fail.  Act two – Arlene and Paul reunite, and meet at the motel to kill Mitchell; they fail too.  Act three – Paul and Mitchell, who have now both been dumped, pair up at the Howard Johnson’s to do-in Arlene. It’s a madcap farce that will be sure to keep you laughing!

All Is Fair In Love… And Murder.

“Enough laugh lines, mirth provoking situations and extravagant sight gags to outfit two rapid fire farces of the absurd.” – Variety

“A holiday of laughter… Beautifully polished, very funny very American comedy.” – WNBC TV
