Fountain Hills Theater continues from the opening of the World Premier Mystery Comedy Triple Threat by Peter J. Hill. When murder stalks a small theater rehearsal, one murdered actor keeps re-appearing over and over again. In this whodunnit-dunnit-dunnit, it could be anybody. The harried director? The dim-witted ingenue? The love-struck stage manager? It could have been anyone. And exactly how many times can one actor die? This hilarious new mystery comedy by Peter J. Hill will have you guessing and laughing in equal amounts.
Triple Threat is a mystery comedy penned by FHT’s Artistic Director Peter J. Hill who thought he ought to do something with his time during the COVID lock down. What surprised him was that this laugh-out-loud comedy would be the result of his forced seclusion. ‘Let’s be honest. We were all bored out of our minds! There’s only so much TV and jigsaw puzzles one person can take! Things seemed so serious and dire. I thought I might write the Great American Novel or as least the Great Searing American Drama. Instead, these crazy characters started filling my blank pages. Before I knew it, Triple Threat was born.” Jam-packed with theatrical characters that Hill knows only too well, Triple Threat is both a keep ‘em guessing mystery and a farcical comedy.
Triple Threat will play through Oct. 27 on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30pm and Sundays at 2pm. Reservations: (480) 837-9661 x3 or visit fhtaz.org. Individual tickets are $40.00 for adults and $18.00 for youth 17 and under. Rated G. All performances take place at Fountain Hills Theater, located at 11445 N. Saguaro Blvd., Fountain Hills, AZ 85268.
