Back by popular demand and with a new ending! NACL will close the 7th
annual Catskill Festival of New Theatre with the return of a site
specific theatre experience for all ages—THE
MYSTERY OF LAKEWOOD HOUSE.
In this original
mystery, the audience can visit various locations
in and around Lakewood House (the residence next
door to the theatre). The spectators catch glimpses
of scenes from the past, and can view characters
up close-- in the living room, around a kitchen
table, on the porch, or in the garden. The Lakewood
House characters include Byron the mad beekeeper,
Alya the ghost and past cook, Theresa the Lakewood
House owner, Dot the eccentric cousin, Lazlo
the Hungarian dance instructor, Agnes the dead
girl, and Joseph the visiting psychic. Music,
secret conversations, fragments of dream-like
imagery, and mystery unfold in a journey back
and forth in time until the final scene reveals
the truth. Last year, The Mystery of Lakewood
House drew record crowds.
