Little Miss Christie
Author(s):

Musician/Composer(s):
Arne Christiansen
Lyricist(s):
Ole Kittleson
This tuneful thriller is loaded with mystery, action and laughter. Strange things are happening at spooky Saltmarsh Manor, the old house next to Greystone Academy, a boarding school for teenagers. Aunt Martha and Aunt Helen have seen ghosts, heard the organ play with no one at the keys and been terrorized by everything from a hangman's noose to clanking chains. Madam Orloff, the psychic, says the spirit of August Grimm, also known as "Mad Monk," has returned. But what does he want? Obviously, it's a case for Christie Blake, the devoted fan of mystery writer, Agatha Christie. Christie involves the student body of Greystone Academy in these strange happenings. The chills and thrills end in a hair-raising seance that pits Christie against evil forces. The show is designed for simple production and written for easy rehearsals. The music score is a hit parade of lively tunes -- the lovely ballad, "Christie," the big show-stopper, "And Then There Were None," the spooky tune, "We're Living In A Haunted House," and the old-time vaudeville-style number, "Chips Off The Old Block," plus many more. The characters are a joy to play, everything from bewildered parents, sinister visitors and suspicious servants to a squad of bubbling and eager detectives.
