Welcome Death

The season’Äôs 2^nd world premiere play, Welcome Death is written and directed by Robert Winslow.

’ÄúWhodunit’Äù fans will love this Victorian murder-mystery set right here in Millbrook! In 1873, the discovery of a young woman’Äôs body in a field spurs a Coroner’Äôs inquest that pushes past the restraints of science and enters the realm of the spirit to find unknowable answers. Based on the archives of the coroner’Äôs inquest of Elizabeth Deyell’Äôs murder trial, the show will be performed on the intimate Meadow Stage (last used in 2005 for That Summer). Welcome Death will give adult volunteers the opportunity to explore life in ’ÄúVictorian’Äù Millbrook while acting out a real murder mystery on stage.

Casting requirements

1 Male 30-50 years

1 Male 40-60 years

1 Male 50-60 years
