Mark Creamer returns to the stage as Nick Holliday, Private Investigator, with the ever-loyal Dora Chase (Bobbi Jo Kelsey) at his side in this installment in the Parlor City Noir series.
Nick finds himself embroiled in a case involving art fraud and murder after Norah Masconi (Kimberly Fisher) walks through his office door.
Norah believes her husband, the notorious mob boss Vinnie Masconi (Paul Tompson) was swindled by a crooked art dealer into buying what he believed is a lost Da Vinci painting called "The Lady in Red."
Nick sets about investigating the painting – and the murder connected to it – with Parlor City Police Department and the organized crime boss watching his every move.
The line between the good guys and bad guys blur as Nick races to solve the murder and origins of the mysterious painting before more Parlor City residents become victims in tensions that could erupt in a mob war.
"Trouble Comes in Red" is directed by Bonnie Love-Colwell. Tickets are available at the door. Light fare will be served and a cash bar will be available.
