Join us for a suspenseful mystery inspired by a real-life murder investigation and considered one of the greatest American one-act plays ever written. When a farmer is found murdered, the men investigating dismiss the household details as unimportant. But the women notice what everyone else overlooks, uncovering clues that lead to an unforgettable conclusion.
