Every family has secrets, and the eccentric Brewster family is no exception. However, when drama critic Mortimer Brewster discovers his two sweet aunt’s macabre hobby of poisoning lonely old men, having skeletons in the closet takes on a whole new meaning. The mad-cap romp begins as Mortimer fights to keep his new-found knowledge from the police (and his fiancée)!  With witty dialogue and unforgettable characters, this hilariously twisted play will have you on the edge of your seat from start to finish.
