Smoke & Mirrors by Will Osborne and Anthony Herrera, and directed by Rhesa Richards, opens Thursday, January 7th and runs through January 24th.

This mystery will delight a winter audience, ready to settle in for a “cross and double-cross” thriller.  The story unfolds on a vacation island off the Mississippi Gulf Coast, where the director, screen writer and lead actor have gone to rehearse some scenes from their newest multi-million dollar collaboration.  Egos, arrogance and jealousy abound, so of course someone has to get shot.  A local Columbo-style sheriff is called in to solve the mystery in his bumbling, down-home style of investigation.

Evening performances at 8:00pm;  Sunday matinees at 2:00pm.  Tickets $15 general admission, $10 students.  Box office opens Sunday, January 3rd.  Call 909-793-2909.
