It’s almost here!

When Irene Chapman, the long-time writer of the Double Nickels Players’ dinner mysteries announced she was resigning from the group to pursue other interests, the group gave a collective gasp and wondered what to do. Giving up the most popular show of the year with sold-out audiences was not an option. With a germ of an idea and Irene’s suggested title, “Murder on the Last Train to Clarksville,” five members—Nancy Barden, Jean Casey, Linda Jurczyk, Patricia Jutz, and Carolyn Leach—set out to write the new show which is coming to the Clarksville Community Center October 20, 21, and 22. As the story opens, excitement is building as the last train of the day arrives in Clarksville bringing seven graduates of the Class of ’25 who are coming home for their 40th high school reunion. Mysteriously, only six of the friends arrive ready to party. One is left on the train—dead as the proverbial doornail.

The large cast will be directed by Leslie Pipan with all Double Nickels participating either as actors or crew.  As in the past, diners will enjoy a delicious meal and drinks. Also as in the past, tickets will be sold only at the box office. Watch for its opening and all the tasty, mysterious details!
