Looking for something a little out of the ordinary this weekend?

Join us for an afternoon of storytelling that will have you on the edge of your seat—but not for the reasons you might expect!


At 2 PM on Sunday, October 27th, the SPARK Storytellers return with a brand new theme: “Spooky. Freaky. Just Weird.” No, we’re not sharing ghost stories, but our storytellers have some strange and true tales that will make you wonder, laugh, and maybe even question reality!


Come to the Trinity Playhouse to hear your neighbors—Jo Barto, Chris Lydic, Fritz Nelson, Stephen May, Lynne Peterson, DeLisa Seals, Robin Tener, and Scott Weingart—recount their “just weird” adventures. Each story promises a different flavor of the unexpected, giving you a glimpse into the bizarre, all while celebrating the diversity of real-life experiences.


🪑 Admission is just $10 (general seating at the door), so grab a seat and settle in for an afternoon of fun and surprises. We are incredibly grateful to the Ohio Arts Council for their generous support, which helps bring events like this to life in our community.

Come out, support local storytellers, and enjoy a truly memorable experience. We can’t wait to see you there!

You’re Invited to Solve the Mystery – and Laugh Yourself Silly! 🕵️‍♀️💥



Enjoy this sneak preview!


Stage Left Players presents Tim Kelly’s uproarious murder mystery farce, "The Butler Did It!" 


7 pm Saturdays and 2 pm Sundays October 5-20!


This comedy parodies every classic English mystery—only with a deliciously American twist!

Join the eccentric Miss Maple as she hosts one of her "clever" weekend parties at the spooky Ravenswood Manor on Turkey Island. She’s invited a group of detective writers to play their fictional characters, but things take a real turn for the mysterious when a body shows up in the wine cellar. And that’s just the beginning!


With figurines toppling from the mantle, a mad killer on the loose, and a band of bungling sleuths tripping over each other (and the clues!), the only thing more puzzling than "whodunit" will be how you stop laughing!


Will one of these bumbling detectives crack the case? Or will Miss Maple’s outrage at this real-life murder be the true showstopper? The thrills keep coming, and the ending is a real seat-grabber, as almost everyone turns out to be someone else.

Don’t miss the laughs, the thrills, and the mystery of the season. Get your tickets now!

But, seriously… who is that body in the wine cellar? 🍷🔍


Or purchase at the door!
