Tahlequah Community Playhouse, Inc. will hold auditions for the second play or the 52nd Season on Monday and Tuesday, September 15 & 16, 7 p.m., St. Basil Episcopal Church, 814 North Vinita Ave. in Tahlequah. The play is written by Ken Ludwig, and directed by Mike Phillips and Paula Reif.  The cast consists of 5 women and 3 men.  Tech, backstage helpers, set builders, costumers, make-up persons, etc. are all needed.

Synopsis of the play: It is December 1936, and Broadway star, William Gillette, known the world over for his leading role in the play Sherlock Holmes, has invited his fellow cast members to his Connecticut castle for a weekend of revelry. But when one of the guests is stabbed to death, the festivities in the isolated house of tricks and mirrors quickly turn dangerous.  It is up to Gillette himself, as he assumes the persona of his beloved Holmes, to track down the killer before the next victim appears.

Please note that the performances take place at First Presbyterian Church, 315 East Shawnee St. For more information contact the director at Phillips@nsuok.edu.   TCP meets the last Tuesday of the month, 6 p.m. at St. Basil Episcopal church, 814 North Vinita Ave. Season tickets are3 still available.
