The amateur actors at the Etonville
Little Theatre may be known for chewing the scenery, but restaurant
manager Dodie O’Dell has something more appetizing for them to sink
their teeth into. She’s been taking bows in her small New Jersey town
for her theme menus, designed to complement the local productions. This
fall, the community theatre is staging Arsenic and Old Lace, set in
1940s Brooklyn, so Dodie is serving up hot dogs, Italian ices, egg
creams, and knishes at the weekend food festival.
All is going well until Antonio Digenza,
the ex-Off-Off-Broadway director of the show, dies dramatically while
noshing on a knish. As rumors of food poisoning quickly spread, Dodie
scrambles to rescue the Windjammer restaurant’s reputation. But when
clues point to foul play, she’s faced with a cast of suspects all
auditioning for the part of DiGenza’s murderer. She’ll need to act fast
to shine a spotlight on the killer—before it’s curtains for another
victim . . .
