"Here's Looking At You...Dead!!"

GreenMan Theatre Troupe announces the cast for "Here's Looking At You...Dead!!"

"Here's Looking At You...Dead!!" is an interactive murder mystery dinner theatre production written by Carolyn Thomas-Davidoff and Carl Zeitler.


The play is set in Paris in 1942, at Nick’s Café, amidst the backdrop of World War II. Disaffected café owner Nick is surprised when his old flame Julia arrives, after having abandoned him in Berwyn to aid the war effort. Nick is even more surprised when shots ring out in the café and bodies start dropping. Before the local police detective suggests rounding up ‘the usual suspects,’ the audience will have a chance to solve this terrible crime.

Elmhurst residents appearing in the production include Marilyn Connolly, Mario D’Agostino, Tom Hughes, Shazad Mehta, Jerry Moore, Cynthia Rosati, and Jim Zervas. From Glen Ellyn, Nancy Mesenbrink and Carl Zeitler appear in the cast.

And from Chicago, Joe Collins and Grace Martinez appear. Other actors cast in the production include Lauren Anders [Villa Park], Edward Barnett [Schaumburg], Katie Monahan [Oak Park], and Kelly Wojnarowski [Arlington Heights].

GreenMan board member and Western Springs resident Carolyn Thomas-Davidoff, who recently directed GreenMan's production of "Speakeasy or Die Hard!!" and appeared as Lady Bracknell in "The Importance Of Being Earnest" will direct the show.

Elmhurst resident Anne Thompson is the music director. Behind the scenes, Jim Ocasek [Elmhurst] and David Soria [Lombard] are the production managers. Elmhurst college graduate, Christine Mullen will design the costumes. Cheryl Turek [Glen Ellyn] is the stage manager. GreenMan programs are partially supported by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council, a state agency.
