PRESCOTT – The Great River Road Theatre will present “Death by Chocolate” as its next dinner theatre production for six performances in January and February.

This adult comedy showcases members of the newly renovated Meadowbrook Health Resort, who are dropping like flies, including famed chef Edith Chiles. On the eve of the grand re-opening, this is not the best advertisement! It's up to John Stone, the manager, to find the cause and the murderer. A synopsis reads:
“Delightfully sarcastic and cynical, Stone finds himself teaming up with Ed Parlor, mystery writer and amateur sleuth, in a wacky race against time. The clues point to a sinister box of chocolates, and the suspects include all the outlandish characters working for the resort. 
“Could it be Lady Riverdale, owner of the resort, and a woman with dark secrets? Or Ralph Deadwood, gym instructor and all around cad? Dick Simmering, the aerobics instructor? Anne, the panic stricken nurse? Or could it be ‘Sweet Pea’ Meadowbrook, overweight and grieving daughter of the recently deceased founder of the resort?”

Performances will take place Jan. 31, Feb. 1, Feb. 2 and Feb. 7-9 at The Old Ptacek’s Event Center in Prescott. Tickets will be available online only and include dinner. Attendees will also have the opportunity to purchase raffle tickets; at the beginning of each performance, a winner will be chosen and awarded a bottle of wine.
