Get ready to solve “The Mystery of Edwin Drood” presented by the Knights of the Square Stage on the weekends of May 10 and 19. In a Victorian music hall, a rowdy ensemble of actors mounts a staging of Charles Dickens’ unfinished novel. Everyone on stage is a suspect in the murder of young Edwin Drood – and it’s up to the audience to determine the killer! The ending differs with each performance. Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 pm; Sundays at 3:00 pm. Contact Maggie Kline for more info.
