What a great way to start off your murder mystery! I'm so glad you gave us the character name and the play role name together - I think you can continue doing that throughout. When I first saw the cast of characters my brain was swamped by the many names and I was sure I would never keep them all straight. I wonder if the production will continue now that the playwright is dead?

Thanks so much for your review and comments. Having so many characters on stage at one time is difficult, but I've seen it done in plays. You have to keep each one in the picture. There'll be times when they won't all be onstage together. I have to have the play continue; otherwise, mine couldn't. judi

Very nice. Everything is well written and precise. You gave enough details of the characters for them to be identifiable from their tone and dialogue. And, naturally we have our murder at the end, complete with screaming and fainting woman.

Well done, totally in character for this type of play.

Thanks so much for your review and comments. It was a challenge to have so many onstage at the same time. That won't always be the case. The characters will reveal more as they're questioned about the murder. judi

It looks like the first victim in your mystery murder play and script has happened. Who is the murderer? I guess we'll find out in due time. (I never know who it might be, I simply choose the least obvious, and quite often right) Establishing your characters is in the process. Well done Judy, blessings Roy

So now this melodrama has a real problem. The author has been murdered. This is going to be some skit you've created. I can't wait for more. Another good job.

What a twist--didn't see that one coming! Excellent--scene meticulously set--characters are well-rendered--amusing interactions move this right along!

Thanks so much for your review and comments. I wonder how the characters will hold up as they're being questioned by the police. judi
