second death of a mad wife
Whatever happened to Jack the Ripper’s wife?
Bunny Maybrick began life in an opulent Alabama mansion and is ending it in a squalid shack full of cats in rural Connecticut. She’s already given away most of her meager belongings, but the heavy contents of her soul are harder to leave behind.
That is, until a local prep school boy, Theo Voss, becomes an accomplice in Bunny’s meandering, mad, death-bed confession – one that includes adultery, arsenic addiction, and murder.
High School Musical lyricist Faye Greenberg and composer David Wohl have written four delightful period songs for the OJP Players, and swing arrangements of many Christmas standards. A 1940’s Radio Christmas Carol will sing its way into your heart.
“Laughs and hearty applause from every age group in attendance… chaotic and hilarious.” – Pam Hardy, The Plain Dealer/Cleveland.com

1940s Radio Christmas Carol
It’s Christmas Eve, 1943, and the OJP Players are now broadcasting from a hole-in-the-wall studio in Upland, CA, and set to present their contemporary “take” on Dickens’s A Christmas Carol. Forget the noisy plumbing, missed cues, electrical blackouts, and the over-the-top theatrics of veteran actor, but radio novice, William St. Claire. This radio show is an entertaining, if wild, excursion into the mayhem and madness of a live radio show. BUT St. Claire’s escalating foibles and acting missteps propel him to an on-air breakdown and the OJP players must find a way to “save the show.” Stay tuned as the company improvises a new ending to Charles Dickens’ classic as a film noir mystery, in which a hardboiled detective and a femme fatale must rescue Tiny Tim (and the Lindbergh baby) from the clutches of an evil villain… named Rudolf all while singing catchy tunes and jazzy Carols in 4 part harmony. Can the OJP players pull off this merry feat of holiday madness? Get your tickets and find out.
Your holiday belly will jiggle with mirth.
