Feb. 22: ‘Spider Web’ mystery in Tullahoma

The Community Playhouse production of the Agatha Christie mystery, “Spider’s Web,” will open tonight at 7:30 p.m. at the South Jackson Civic Center in Tullahoma. A free reception will be offered immediately following the performance to allow the audience to meet the cast and crew.

Additional production dates are slated for Feb. 21, 27, and 28 at 7:30 p.m. and February 22 at 2 p.m.

“Spiders Web” is an intriguing Agatha Christie mystery which artfully blends suspense with comedy. “Clarissa,” the mischievous wife of a diplomat, routinely spins tall tales and plays harmless pranks to entertain her friends. However, when a murder occurs in her drawing room, she finds that true life drama can be much harder to deal with than fiction. More complications occur when she discovers that the victim is the person responsible for breaking up her husband’s first marriage, her husband is due home soon with an important foreign diplomat, and her young stepdaughter could be the murderer. “Clarissa” begins to spin a confusing web of lies and deception as she tries to keep the police from finding out what she fears to be the truth.

Ticket prices for “Spider’s Web” are $10 for adults, $9 for senior citizens (65 and older), and $8 for students. Discount rates are available for group reservations of 10 or more. A Sunday matinee special of “Buy One Ticket Get One Free” will be offered on Feb. 22.
