LOWER LAKE, Calif. – Soroptimist International off Clear Lake is hosting a mystery dinner theater titled "Sour Grapes Of Wrath” on Friday, Oct. 21.
A few tickets at $40 per person are still available for the event, which will take place beginning at 5 p.m. at the Lower Lake Historic Schoolhouse Museum, 16435 Main St.
The dinner, to be catered by Fresh & Bangin', will include mixed green salad, roasted root veggies with herb sauce, cauliflower puree, roasted pork loin with lemon cream sauce and wine. Vegetarians can opt for the chili relleno. Desserts will be provided by great cooks who are members of Soroptimist.
The scenario: One year ago, Robert Killingsworth bought the farm. Six months later, he was dead - leaving his widow Elizabeth to tend to the fledgling vineyard and winery on the outskirts of California's wine country.
With mounting debts and no idea how to run a business, Elizabeth is desperate to sell the farm and recoup her losses. The fierce drought and shaky economy, however, have left the Killingsworth farm on the market far too long.
One early autumn day, six people passed through the gates of Killingsworth farm to visit Elizabeth – one of them, a cold-blooded killer.
There are three women and three men in the production, including Soroptimist members Brenda Crandall, Wanda Harris and Reiko Hattori, with the rest of the cast including Randy Hare, Shawn Garrison and Bert Hutt.
There are prizes for those who correctly identify the killer of Elizabeth Killingsworth.
