by Billy Van Zandt and Jane Milmore 

Director: Tommye Staley
Assistant Director: Pat Musto
Producer: Roxanne Dunlop
Stage Manager: 
Lighting and Sound: 

A cast of has been actors plan to revive their careers in Drop Dead!, a potboiler murder mystery directed by "Wonder Child of the Broadway Stage" Victor Le Pewe (a psychotic eye twitching megalomaniac). At the dress rehearsal, the set falls, props break, and the producer and an actor are murdered. During the opening night performance, the murders continue. The remaining thespians must save the show and their careers, solve the mystery and stay alive for curtain calls.

Alabama Miller, the playwright, has written a 'wonderful' new play and has gotten noted director, Victor Le Pewe, to direct it.  And what a dream cast he has put together....Mona Monet, the famous TV star; Brent Reynolds, the experienced actor; Chaz Looney, the new apprentice actor, and Constance Crawford, the aging, but well-known stage star.  The only 'fly in the ointment' comes from Sol Weisenheimer the producer who has insisted that his 'protégé' Candy Apples (former porn star) be given a role in the play.  Then there is the 'actor off the street' Dick Shalit, who is known to none of the others.  And of course there is Phillip, the harried stage manager who tries to hold it all together.  We join this madcap group at their final dress rehearsal......and let the fun begin!!!

Drop Dead!  needs ten actors - 7 men and 3 women.
