The Schroeder Theater Company is brewing up a steaming dose of mystery and laughs with their upcoming production of The Café Mocha Murders, which takes the stage next weekend.
Forget your average employee meeting. At The Bean Shack, things are about to get frothy… and fatal! When a raging storm knocks out the lights, it’s not just the espresso machine that goes silent. Someone’s gone and kicked the coffee grounds, leaving a whole lot of questions and a sprinkle of suspicion.
This wildly witty whodunit by Deanna Strasse is a delicious blend of latte art, caffeine cravings, and the ever-so-slight chance of, well, death. Prepare for over-the-top characters, like Soma (Aspen Russell), Ian (Evan Burdick) and Ivy (Reese Holland) who take on plot twists that’ll make your head spin faster than a barista on a Saturday morning, and enough intrigue to keep you buzzing long after the curtain falls.
The Café Mocha Murders will be presented at Webster Schroeder High School, 875 Ridge Rd., Thursday through Saturday, May 1 to 3 at 7 p.m. each night, plus a matinee on Saturday, May 3 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $10. They’re available online here and at the door.
