Sunhine State Butler earns a rave

When you write for amateur theater--that is, schools and community groups--actual published reviews are few and far between. So one comes along, it's a real treat. Especially if it's a rave.

That was the case today as online magazine Florida Theater On Stage published a review of Curtain Call Playhouse's production of my very British mystery/comedy, The Butler Did It! This ambitious theater company has making the rounds of South Florida with the production. They opened November 16-17 in Pompano Beach, moved on to Sunrise for a single performance on November 24, and are now settled in at Boca Raton for two weekends of shows.

Reviewer Britin Hailer had lots of good things to say about the play, but I especially like how she wrapped up:

"The Butler Did It! is a roller coaster of reveals to keep you guessing up until you realize the little clues planted along the way were leading to a perfect finish. If you love murder mysteries, and even if you don't, we heartily and rousingly suggest you attend Curtain Call Playhouse's current production for a rollicking good time."

A big thanks to director Gary Solomons and the rest of the cast and crew for putting your heart and soul into the production. Sounds like it paid off nicely.
