Alma College Theatre performance

Alma College Theatre
Book of Days by Lanford Wilson

This award-winning play was first produced at Purple Rose Theatre Company in Chelsea, Michigan. Wilson sets the action in a small Missouri town where everyone knows everyone’s business. When the owner of the cheese plant dies mysteriously, Ruth, his bookkeeper, suspects murder and launches into a one-woman campaign to see justice done. This tornado of a play propels you through its events like a page-turning mystery.
Attention: explicit language and adult situations
