The Stars is the acting class at Silver State High School.
The Silver State Stars present "And Then There Was One Too," 7-9 p.m. tonight and Friday at the Carson City Community Center.
The murder-mystery comedy play is a continuation of the popular Agatha Christie take-off comedy, "And Then There Was One," which the school performed last year. Agatha Christie's "And Then There Were None" was published in the United Kingdom in 1939. It has sold 100 million to date, making it the best selling murder mystery.
"The show has a wonderfully creative cast that will ensure many laughs," said director Ms. Gardner.
"And Then There Was One Too" features 10 characters brought to a house on Cable Car Cliff for a masquerade party. Once G. Reef's body appears, the guests start to accuse each other.
One by one they hit the dust until two characters are left standing, the butler and maid. They believe that they committed the perfect crime, but it ends in a twist, and is filled with hilarious gags and dialog.
"It's fun, funny, and murder mysterious," said Peter Stephenson who starred as Clayhorn in last year's production.
Tickets are $5 for students and children under 12 years of age and $10 for adults. For more information, call 883-7900.
