Party To Murder

Synopsis:
RaY LEWIS: brash; 20. SHEILa HILTON: pretty, trendy; l8. TONY MaRSHaLL: good-looking; late 30s. NORMa BRENT: sophisticated, attractive, wealthy, blonde; 30s. STEPHEN BRENT: mature, strong personality, charming; about 40. CLIVE PRIOR: rugged; early 40s. JOaN PRIOR: homely, early middleage. DIaNE WINSLOW: attractive, intelligent, dark; this character is doubled with NORMa BRENT. When the attractive, but not altogether admirable NORMa BRENT is killed (by the unusual method of a manipulated hair-dryer) there are a number of people who would seemingly have reason to welcome her departure. The cold eye of suspicion glances from one member of the cast to another, not excluding STEPHEN himself, and the appearance of mysterious typed notes hidden in - of all places - a copy of Plato's Republic - adds to the general unease. For one frightening moment it seems NORMa may have come to life again, but the apparition turns out to be her cousin DIaNE, who strongly resembles her. at the climax of the play STEPHEN makes good use of this resemblance in a carefully staged and eerie scene which leads to the unmasking of the killer.
