Our First Comedy - whodunnit Show!

Veronica Blather is a sweet, elderly quilter with a knack for solving murders - an unfortunate talent that makes finding a place to live nearly impossible.

When she moves into a retirement home for quilters, it seems like the perfect fit...

until a resident dies from a

suspicious cup of punch.

With a growing list of eccentric suspects, a storm that knocks out the lights, and danger lurking around every corner, Veronica must unravel the mystery before

another body drops.

Fast-paced, funny, and full of twists, this delightfully devious keeps audiences guessing until the final reveal.

About Us

At Star Theatre, we are dedicated to delivering live, high quality, family-friendly entertainment with a focus on meaningful storytelling.

This intimate, charming theatre seats 250 and was built in 1911 and opened to the public in 1912 as a silent movie house.

Academy Award Winner, Jimmy Stewart, would frequent the theatre as a teenager while he was a student at the Mercersburg Academy in the 1920's.

Fire damaged the theatre in the 1930's, after which a decorator from Philadelphia was called in to restore the damage. A massive renovation was done which included Art Deco light fixtures and flocked wallpaper, which remain in the theatre today. In the late 1970's , the theatre operated as a movie house and in the year 2000, it became the home of the Pennsylvania Opry for several years.

Star Theatre Productions LLC is a small, family-owned business and currently owns and operates all aspects of this piece of Mercersburg history. They continue to renovate the building while maintaining it's historic integrity and greatly appreciate any donations to our renovation fund!
