DEADLINE
A world premiere comedy thriller! Playwrights Don and Mara are hired to finish a famous mystery writer’s last play following his mysterious death, shortly before its Broadway opening. “Deadline” takes place on a yacht, where an estranged family has been called together for the reading of their mother’s will. As Don and Mara delve deeper into the writing process, they suddenly find themselves literally sucked into the play, trapped in the very world they are trying to complete, where solving the mystery becomes a matter of life and death. “Deadline” is a bit of “Clue,” and a bit of “Knives Out,” and a lot of fun!

CLASSIC ALBUMS LIVE PERFORMS EAGLES: HOTEL CALIFORNIA
“Hotel California” is one of the greatest albums ever made (there’s a reason why “New Kid in Town” won a Grammy). The deep cuts – the ones that don’t get radio play – those are the ones that are like finding gold on a beach. “Wasted Time” is the ultimate heartache song, “Pretty Maids All in a Row” is Joe Walsh’s tour de force, and “The Last Resort” should be taught in schools.
Featuring a roster of world-class musicians from across the globe, Classic Albums Live will perform the Eagle’s album “Hotel California” in its entirety, exactly as you remember it, but in a concert setting.
Nov. 18, Victoria Theatre, 138 North Main St., Dayton. Call 937-228-3630 or daytonlive.org for tickets.
