The Cassandra Murders
Written By Madeline Daly Puccioni
Directed by Hannah Eckstein
Dr. Kate Wells, Chief Forensic Psychologist at Colusa State Hospital for the Criminally Insane, must determine whether her new intake, Cass Porter, (who calls herself Cassandra, Princess of the House of Troy), is genuinely insane, or faking insanity to avoid trial for murder. Despite her skepticism, and her training, Kate forms a mysterious attachment to Cass, an ancient bond she cannot explain. Will Cass risk her freedom and her life to convince Kate there is a dark and evil secret at Colusa? Will Kate risk her sanity and perhaps her life to believe Cass? In time to save them both?
The Cassandra Murders won first prize in Scriptwriters & Cos International Festival Competition 2023. Cassandra was a daughter of King Priam and Queen Hecuba of Troy. Her elder brother was Hector, the hero of the Greek-Trojan war. The older and most common versions of the myth state that she was admired by the god Apollo, who sought to win her love by means of the gift of seeing the future.
The cast includes MCT favorites Shireen Doyle, Marty Lee Jones & Avondina Wills, and two actors who are new to the MCT stage, Simon Hayward and Manirose Bobisuthi.
The production opens at Ben Lomonds historic Park Hall, 9400 Mill Street, on Friday, August 18th, and continues through Sunday, August 20th. Friday and Saturday performances are at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday at 1:00 p.m. General Admission tickets are $10, Students and Seniors are $7. There will be a special talkback with the cast, director, and playwright after all three shows.
