Synopsis

While a blizzard rages outside the theatre of a liberal arts college, an evening rehearsal for the upcoming production of Romeo and Juliet explodes. The cast is told by the janitor that if they remain in the darkened theatre, they will discover the identity of the ghost that haunts the theatre. They discover that they are trapped in the theatre and must pit their wits against a demented mind filled with real and imagined abuses. The killer uses the theatrical effects of a strobe light and electronic feedback to create terror as he stalks his victims. In the final resolution, a talent that has long been denied expression finds recognition.

This is an excellent play for groups with limited ability to create sets. It also has a good mix of males to females for small high schools.
