Charge is $40 per seat - which includes a 7 course formal gourmet
dinner on fine china, and the show.
Iowa Central Community College Culinary Arts Department presents the
new Hawkeye Theatre entity, the HCT Whodunits in Lee Mueller’s “Death
of a Doornail” at historic House Smeltzer.
Social time with a cash bar is at 6:00 with formal dinner seating at
7:00 nightly. The fare is full course formal gourmet dining—oh and
while your palate is busy—so is the action around you. A murder has
taken place in the house and the folks who gather there for dinner
along with you are involved. Can you survive until dessert?
Eccentric Millionaire, Albert Doornale has invited all of his close
friends to his estate; including his ex-wife Abigail, his current
fiance Candy Bombay, and his childhood friend from the lower East
Side, Salvatore Carbone. Everyone arrives at the estate greeted by
the
grumpy Butler and cutlery carrying cook. The only problem is, Albert
is not there, no one has seen him. Not his nerdy Nephew or his
socially spoiled daughter. None of the guest have any idea why they
are there or what happened to their host. That is until blood is
found
in the upstairs bathroom. Was Albert killed and carried away? In the
nick of time, Inspector Bukowski arrives on the scene. A murder
investigation will begin, as soon as a body is found. It may be a
long
wait. Directed by Michael Shoopman.
