Contact director him at solarwind60@gmail.com or text 740-525-9016 with any questions Clarissa, wife of a diplomat, is adept at spinning tales of adventure, but when a murder takes place in her drawing room, she finds live drama much harder to cope with. Desperate to dispose of the body before her husband arrives with an important politician, she enlists the help of her guests. Hilarity ensues when they are interrupted by the arrival of wry detective Inspector Lord. With this conscious parody of the detective thriller, Christie delivers a unique blend of suspense and humor. There is tension and laughter in equal parts in an intricate plot of murder, police, drug addicts, invisible ink, hidden doorways and secret drawers. This show is set in England and performances will require British accents. CHARACTERS: Ages listed are general character age and not necessarily the age the actor must be to portray them. CLARISSA HAILSHAM-BROWN: Age 25-35. The second wife of Henry Hailsham-Brown, charming and inventive, her imagination tends to work overtime, with some unexpected consequences. JEREMY WARRENDER: Age 20-30. An elegant young man and guest at the Hailsham-Brown’s house, the private secretary for a man much wealthier than he. OLIVER COSTELLO: Age 40s. He is suspected of shady dealings. None of the other characters like him and neither should the audience. PIPA HAILSHAM-BROWN: Clarissa’s young stepdaughter: Age about 12 years old, she exhibits the strong emotional swings of a pre-teen, made worse by a previous family problem. MILDRED PEAKE: She is a jolly woman of forty odd, in tweeds and gum boots. The gardener with a hale and hearty attitude, some suspect that she isn’t all there. MR. ELGIN: The butler – middle aged. Nothing escapes his attention. HENRY HAILSHAM-BROWN: Age 40-50s. Clarissa’s husband. A good-looking man of about forty with a rather expressionless face who works in the foreign office, a strong, solid type. HENRY HAILSHAM-BROWN: Age 40-50s. Clarissa’s husband. A good-looking man of about forty with a rather expressionless face who works in the foreign office, a strong, solid type. SIR ROWLAND DELAHAYE: Age 50-60. A distinguished gentleman with very definite charm. Clarissa’s guardian, friend, and adviser, he likes to think that he can guide her but would never admit that she has him wrapped around her little finger. HUGO BIRCH: Age 50-60. The local Justice of the Peace. A rather irascible type who shouldn’t be involved in business like a murder. INSPECTOR LORD: Age 40-50s. The wheels are always turning in his brain. Although he doesn’t let on, he doesn’t miss a thing. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/marietta/auditions-spiders-web/200030598839018 - **Event Categories**: Art, Theatre, performances, fine-arts, trips-adventures, Entertainment - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Marietta - **state**: OH - **country**: United States - **location**: 229 Putnam St, Marietta, OH, United States, Ohio 45750 - **lat**: 39.41608 - **long**: -81.45379 - **full address**: 229 Putnam St, Marietta, OH, United States, Ohio 45750 ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Auditions: Spider's Web - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/eb06a95e0147cf093fade315d12bed013759b48a8594104f3661f855a601c56c-rimg-w1200-h675-dc080808-gmir?v=1787382018 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Auditions: Spider's Web being held? - **A:** Auditions: Spider's Web takes place on Sun, 30 Aug, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Sun, 30 Aug, 2026 at 09:00 pm at 229 Putnam St, Marietta, OH, United States, Ohio 45750. - **Q**: Who is organizing Auditions: Spider's Web? - **A:** Auditions: Spider's Web is organized by Mid Ohio Valley Players Inc. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Auditions: Spider's Web", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/eb06a95e0147cf093fade315d12bed013759b48a8594104f3661f855a601c56c-rimg-w1200-h675-dc080808-gmir?v=1787382018", "startDate": "2026-08-30T19:00:00-04:00", "endDate": "2026-08-30T21:00:00-04:00", "url": "https://allevents.in/marietta/auditions-spiders-web/200030598839018", "eventStatus": "https://schema.org/EventScheduled", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "229 Putnam St, Marietta, OH, United States, Ohio 45750", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "229 Putnam St, Marietta, OH 45750-3015, United States", "addressLocality": "Marietta", "addressRegion": "OH", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "39.41608", "longitude": "-81.45379" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Auditions for Agatha Christie's Spider's Web\n\nDates: August 30 & 31 from 7:00 - 9:00 p.m. in the MOVP annex, located next to the theatre at 227 Putnam St.\n\nShow dates: January 8, 9, 15, 16, and 17\n\nAuditions will consist of reading from the script.
