When eight mystery writers arrive at a legendary writer’s fog-shrouded island mansion in the North Atlantic, they think they’re ready for the Deadline Challenge—twenty-four restful hours to write as much of their new novel as possible. But the Deadline Challenge is anything but restful. In reality, the writers are brought together to solve a murder—the victim yet be determined, and the killer yet to strike. If a writer can design and execute a perfect murder and get away with it, they’ll win a million dollars (which is a lot of money for a writer). Who will live? Who will die? Who will survive the Deadline?
Rehearsals: Tuesdays and Thursdays: 6-9pm & most Saturdays: 2-5pm
(Rehearsals will be at BTC at 1035 Broadway Ave. in Lorain)

Upcoming Summer Season 2026 shows
Into the Woods Jr.
In this musical, a baker and his wife wish to have a child, but a terrible curse plagues them. They embark on a journey in search of magical ingredients to break their curse. Along the way, they run into Little Red Riding Hood on her way to her grandmother’s house, Cinderella arriving home from the King’s festival, and Jack, who has just grown a giant beanstalk! These quirky fairy-tale characters learn the meaning of empathy and perseverance as they pursue their hopes and dreams in a world that seems to have the odds stacked against them.
Music by the brilliant Stephen Sondheim will transport you into the world of fairytales. Into the Woods Jr. will showcase actors grades 4th-12th as these classic characters search for “happily ever after.”

Little Shop of Horrors
A deviously delicious smash musical, Little Shop Of Horrors has devoured the hearts of theatre goers for over 30 years. Howard Ashman and Alan Menken (Disney's The Little Mermaid, Beauty And The Beast, and Aladdin) are the creative geniuses behind what has become one of the most popular shows in the world.
The meek floral assistant Seymour Krelborn stumbles across a new breed of plant he names "Audrey II" - after his coworker crush. This foul-mouthed, R&B-singing carnivore promises unending fame and fortune to the down and out Krelborn as long as he keeps feeding it, BLOOD. Over time, though, Seymour discovers Audrey II's out of this world origins and intent towards global domination!
