men AGAIN?! Dual adventures ensue in this sequel to last season’s sell-out,

If that weren’t enough, they also try to identify who is stealing the explorer’s inheritance. Follow the clues to solve two mysteries amidst a Victorian seance, a pre-Freudian alienist, some cross-dressing, and barriers to gender equality at every turn. Welcoming back some of the Stage Guild’s Victorian Ladies cast and director! Area Premiere.
