WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

Gerald, Lucy, and Minka are all Murderers, living and working in the Riddle Key Retirement Community in Florida. That they committed murder is not in question, but as for why... Join them for a killer evening of greed, revenge, and hilarity by one of Philadelphia Theatre Company's favorite playwrights and master storytellers Jeffrey Hatcher (A Picasso, Compleat Female Stage Beauty, Three Viewings).

WHAT ARE CRITICS SAYING?

In 1995, the Philadelphia Theatre Company presented the local premiere of Jeffrey Hatcher's Three Viewings, a trio of monologues all set in the same small-town funeral home. Now, Hatcher returns to PTC for the East Coast premiere of Murderers, another humorous triptych in which death plays a prominent role.

Smartly directed by Michael Bush, and beautifully acted by Marylouise Burke, Brent Langdon, and Kristine Nielsen, Murderers takes place at the Riddle Key Retirement Center in Riddle, Florida, where we're told "everybody eats by 5pm and goes to bed before sundown." Death is a regular visitor to Riddle, but in Hatcher's crafty comedy, few of the residents are dying from natural causes.[...]
