The Foothills' newest theatre collective, the Erratic Players, is staging a murder mystery show in Longview.

The Erratic Players is comprised of experienced members of the Dewdney Players and newcomers to the theatre scene.

"We're a theatre collective with the goal of creating a professional theatre in the Foothills," said founding member Katie Fournell. "And making sure that there's opportunity for artists to actually do paying work.

"So basically, any funds that come into the organized collective go straight back into the artists."

The show is titled Murder at Twin Cities and will be hosted at the Twin Cities Saloon.

"It's never been done before," said Fournell. "This is the first time a show's been done in this location and the owner is really excited about that."

Fournell said the dinner theatre experience will include a three-course meal while watching a high energy comedy and trying to solve a murder.

Multiple dates are scheduled for February, with the first show on Feb. 2. Tickets can be purchased here.
