The Marion Spring Play, Death of a Hot Sauce Salesman, by Michael Druce, will be presented Saturday, April 5 at 7:00pm and Sunday, April 6, at 2:00pm. Prescott Knight, owner of the Hot Knights Genuine Pepper Sauce empire, discovers on the morning of the annual Knight Family Barbecue that someone is trying to kill him. A family meeting is hastily arranged, and Prescott announces he is changing his will so that the recipe for Hot Knights will pass into the right hands. Hours later, family members find Prescott dead and the recipe stolen. Prescott’s family, his lawyer, the housekeeper, and the gardener are all suspects. Judge Titania A. Drumm slowly unravels this spicy comedy filled with zany characters, outrageous lines, and plenty of hot sauce. Tickets are $6 for adults, $3 for non-Marion students (k-12) and seniors (65 and older), and free for 5 and under. The show is under the direction of Sarah Schanzenbach and Nicolle Timmerman.
