PLOT: A high school reunion becomes the scene of crime. A dinner theater murder mystery comedy.

HISTORY: Since my previous two shows with Saint Mary's had been performed in early February, I was wondering by mid-February of the new year if there would be one for 2008. It was then (Feb. 17th) that I got a call from Shari, asking me if I'd like to play an absent-minded priest in that year's fund-raiser. I agreed, making "Reunion at Hippie High" my third play of the year, hot on the heels of February and March's "Magical Murder of Oz", and late March's "Golden Age of Radio". I played a hippie priest with memory problems, while my wife Cindy ran lights. Amidst the hippie motif, audience members got to participate in the clue hunt, sing-alongs, and a couple of on-stage segments. I had a good time with the cast (all familiar faces), and consider this one of the better Moushey plays (out of five) that I've done over the past three years.
