Como-Harriet Streetcar Line Stages Murder Mystery with SOUTHWEST HIGH SCHOOL THEATRE DEPARTMENT!!!

“Murder on the Downtown Express”, an original one-act murder mystery, will be performed Friday and Saturday, July 8 and 9, at the Como-Harriet Streetcar Line. (Media night/preview July 6). Passengers will assemble at the Linden Hills Station, Queen Avenue South at West 42nd Street, at 8:30 PM on Fri 7/8 & Sat 7/9 to board the “Downtown Express.” (A second show will be added at 10pm each night if demand is great enough). During the trip a murder is committed, and passengers and actors will interact in solving the crime. The play is set in the Roaring Twenties and passengers are encouraged to dress for the era.

Tickets are $15 and available at the Linden Hills Station, Bayer’s Do It Best Hardware in Linden Hills, and on the Minnesota Streetcar Museums website, www.TrolleyRide.org Seating is very limited.

Southwest High School Theatre Director (and area resident) David Premack directs the talented Elena Fransen, Chris Knutson, Peter Matheson, Emma Palmer, Xavier Schauls, and Caleb Sponheim. A mixture of recent graduates and soon-to-be seniors, they are seasoned veterans of the Southwest stages, recently appearing in “Les Miserables”, “Still Life With Iris”, “Puberty: The Game Show”, and “The Proposal.” Their dynamic blend of comedy, dramatic effect, and improvisation will have you on the edge of your seat sharing in the suspense and excitement. Period dialects and costumes will transform you to Minneapolis in the 1920s as you try to figure out who killed Freddy... and why! Take the ride to see these up-and-coming actors as they stage a murder-mystery. You won't want to miss it!
