Murder At The Class Reunion


The class of 1980 at Saint Sebastian's On The Delaware, had never had a class reunion. When one was finally announced, everyone was excited. Anybody who was "anybody" planned on attending: The football hero, the class president, the head cheerleader....but when a few of the high school "nobodies" also showed up, things got tense. Suddenly someone was very dead. But why? And who was responsible? Lots of fun for your actors and audience.
