A few people gather on Friday the
13th at the Travers mansion, in New York, for the reading of
Josiah's will. Which is a wall chart rendered in the
form of a rebus(a part word, part drawing puzzle)
that almost defies solution. Instead of designing an
heir, it offers the estate to anyone who
can solve the will. The lights keep going out and
people keep getting murdered. The audience will have
a ball trying to untangle faster that the hapless
characters. By the final act, revelations
are exploding as surprise piles upon surprise and
gasps alternate with howls of laughter.
