Suitable for all groups.

Characters: 5 males, 5 females, optional chorus

This is a delightful, audience pleasing, one-set, musical spoof based on Mr. Kelly's enormously popular hit The Butler Did It. Miss Maple, a flaky society dowager, invites a pack of zany detective writers to a spooky house on an isolated island and forces them to impersonate their fictional sleuths. For entertainment, she arranges some "classic" touches - a hairy face at the window, the threat of an escaped lunatic, no communications with the outside world. What she did not arrange was the body on the sitting room carpet It's up to seedy Chandler Marlowe to solve the bizarre case and he makes a side-splitting mess of it Ultimately, everyone has a guilty secret to confess and the real killer turns out to be the least suspected.

The happy score is dotted with likeable and show-stopping hits: "Murder, Mystery and Mayhem," "The Moth to the Flame," "Cherchez La Femme," "I Know My Stuff," and, of course, "The Butler Did It," among others. Production demands are extremely modest and the cast of ten can be expanded if desired.

This laugh-oriented, old-fashioned melodrama is based on Wilkie Collins' classic, and it is wild, fast, and funny.

This is the first book in a series of historical fantasy/shadow history about 19th century Covington/Newport, Kentucky and Cincinnati, Ohio. You think you know the history of this region and the events that shaped it? You really don't. You think you know the notable people who were born or lived here and who went on to influence the country and the world? You might be surprised. This is the area that was once considered for the nation's capital, the "Paris of the West," and was the home to many famous Americans who influenced U.S. and world history. But it also, for a time, became the focal point for the forces of dark magic, mythological creatures, and international conspiracy. Now over a century removed from that time, the truth can finally be told. Are you ready for it?

Yet another book of dark and whimsical poetry for the Halloween season, or for whenever one is in the mood for reading something scary by candlelight.

The Role of Information and Communication Technologies in Postconfl ict Reconstruction studies explores the transformative role that Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) can have in postconfl ict nations during the process of reconstruction. It examines how policymakers, the donor community, and the private sector have prioritized and sequenced ICT initiatives in the aftermath of confl ict. Case studies look at countries at different stages of post-confl ict reconstruction in Afghanistan, Liberia, Rwanda and Timor-Leste, and postrevolution in Tunisia. In addition, the report proposes a conceptual framework to understand how ICTs can contribute to improving service delivery and assisting with nation-building. The opening chapter of the report gives an overview of the relationship between confl ict, reconstruction, and the role of ICTs. It builds on experience within the Bank as well as on a wide range of practitioner, academic, and other literature. The second chapter seeks to establish a framework for understanding the ways in which ICTs interact with societies in transition from violence to stability, and for leveraging their potential to further that transition. The roots of this lie in understanding two fields of study, policy and practice: Analysis of confl ict and post-confl ict reconstruction, and Analysis of ICTs and the development of an information society. Chapter three then analyses the relationship between these two fi elds and proposes a framework for analysis and policy development. The fourth chapter makes a number of recommendations to the World Bank Group, to other donors and development actors, as well as to the governments of countries emerging from violent confl ict, and suggests areas for further research."

The Broadband Strategies Handbook is a guide for policymakers, regulators, and other relevant stakeholders as they address issues related to broadband development. It aims to help readers, particularly those in developing countries, by identifying issues and challenges in broadband development, analyzing potential solutions to consider, and providing practical examples from countries that have addressed broadband-related matters. The Handbook looks at how broadband is defined, why it is important, and how its development can be encouraged. Throughout the volume, broadband is viewed as an ecosystem consisting of both supply and demand components, both of which are equally important if the expansion of broadband networks and services is to be successful. In addressing the challenges and opportunities that broadband gives rise to, the Handbook discusses the policies and strategies that government officials and others should consider when developing broadband plans, including the legal and regulatory issues, what technologies are used to provide broadband, how to facilitate universal broadband access, and how to generate demand for broadband services and applications.

It was a gala day in Phoenix, Arizona. A gathering of the city's most prominent citizens-including silent movie queen and patroness of the arts Gina Langley-were gathered for the grand opening of the sumptuous new Langley Memorial Art Museum. In the midst of the festivities, a tragedy occurs. One of the VIP guests, a prominent attorney, is struck in the temple by a magnificent Rodin bronze, which had fallen from its pedestal. The attorney is killed instantly, and the newspapers are quick to announce this freak accident. But was it a freak accident? Of course not, this was MURDER! In the tradition of the classic mysteries of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and Agatha Christie, The Museum Murders is rich with bloodthirsty killings, colorful characters, crackling dialogue and-after all is said and done-a satisfying denouement. This rich concoction of murder and betrayal is from the mind of the late Tim Kelly, known and respected as America's most prolific playwright. During his award-winning career, Mr. Kelly wrote hundreds of plays but only a handful of novels. This particular novel was written in the late 1950s and never published-until now. As you read through these sharply written pages you will see for yourself how this remarkable writer has held audiences in his creative grasp with his well-chosen words. The dialogue almost jumps off the page. Take a tour of The Museum Murders. But watch out for falling Rodins ...
