Join us on Wednesday, September 18 at 11:40 a.m. at the New Theatre & Restaurant KC in Overland Park, Kansas for a showing of An Old Fashioned Family Murder. If you enjoy Agatha Christine's Death on the Nile and Murder on the Orient Express, then you'll surely die for this show! In 1942, a junior homicide detective stumbles upon the murder of a famed mystery writer. Trapped in a mansion with several suspects, he finds himself outmatched by the cunning of the killer. His only hope in solving the case--his mystery loving mother, who is trapped in the mansion with him.
