My memory is going. I know I had a hand in writing this, if I didn't write it in total. If I co-wrote it, it was probably either with Rob or Karen Padden.
We did it as a fundraiser for a dressage barn in Dallas, Pennsylvania (which I don't know if it's still in business or not. The owner was a friend of Karen's). Again, I don't remember the names of the characters but I do know who was in the cast.
Christine E. Rock
Michael Mergo
Kelly Clisham
Rob Padden
Paul Clisham
I seem to recall Christine was the victim. Mike played her deep in debt, gambling addicted husband. Kelly played a rival in the dressage business and I believe Rob was the trainer. Although, Kelly might have been the victim and Christine her rival. Oh, I don't know. I used to have a good memory, at one time.
How I know I definitely had a hand in the murder mystery is because I thought it would have been fun to have Mike be a closet cross dresser. I acted as an IRS agent investigating him/the detective--basically running the show. We had Mike wear a bra underneath his suit. I forgot about it until Rob (at least I think it was Rob) reminded me about it just before the show ended. This was the first (and as far as I know, the only) murder mystery Mike had done, and he thought we had made him wear the bra as a joke/initiation of some sort.
Just goes to show my memory had blips in it even back then.
