This mystery-comedy is set on
an island off the coast of Devon,
England. Eight unsuspecting guests
have been invited for a weekend re
treat to the Owens home, though
none of the guests have ever met
their hosts. Nor have the guests
ever met each other. Even more bi
zarre, the household servants have
never met their employers. And so
commences a humorously baffling
weekend that will soon turn bloody.
The title for the play is derived
from ten Indian statuettes that are
huddled on a mantle in the house.
Shortly after all the guests arrive,
one of the statues falls from the mantle and breaks. Immediately afterward,
one of the guests dies. And then there were nine.
The remaining guests must decipher the clues left for them to determine
who will be the next to fall, and why. Little by little they will fit the pieces
together, but they may not be quick enough. Who will be the "one little
Indian boy, left all alone?"
Tickets for Ten Little Indians are $3 for students and $5 for the general
public. To reserve your seat, please call the RUB Desk at 6242.
