This is an incredibly great show for the money.  All the blood and quirky humor you can handle.  There is a disembodied hand that makes a number of appearances during the show.  At one point it gives ‘the finger’ to one of the other cast members.  Emily does a great job singing, even if she has a crazy family to sing about.

I, being a hard grader, was thinking of giving this play 4 out 5 stars.  But after thinking about how much cleaning up and laundry the cast has to do, I think we can give this play a 5 out of 5 on the Community Theater scale.  I highly recommend spending the $15 and seeing this community jewel.

Comments received from viewers:

“A hell of a lot better than that ‘Haunting’ crap you dragged us off to in Elgin.”

“The best community theater play I have ever scene”

“Did you see the cute guy with the beard in the back of the theater? (never said the comments were all about the play)”
