1 ALIVE WITH THE ARTS

3 TO GO Where to go and be seen in Southern Indiana

2 3

The time is June 1892. Modern-day people fill the parlor at the Culbertson Mansion, paying their respects to Mr. Culbertson,

who appears to be lying in a coffin. Little do the visitors know that once the will is read, someone will be mad — mad enough to kill someone.

Guests of the mansion, with some dressed in period costumes, will get to eat and mingle with all the who’s-who of the 1800s, as the actors play their parts and even answer audience questions as guests try to figure out who committed the murder and why. It is part of their murder-mystery fund-raising dinners, something that is becoming more popular in the Southern Indiana area.

“It is very interactive. That’s what makes it so fun for the guests. They have to interact to find out. All the actors are sitting down and eating dinner with them. Those conversations with the actors will give you clues on [who committed the murder],” said Jessica Stavros, director of the Culbertson Mansion State Historic Site.

The Culbertson is one of two groups locally putting on murder-mystery performances, where guests eat and mingle with characters from the play and try to figure out who did it before the final act.

Niles Welch is executive producer of WhoDun-nit, a group that performs murder-mysteries at the Louisville Bristol Bar and Grill.

“Acts are in-between the meal portions. Actors mingle in character in the audience and they can ask questions. We have to tell the truth, but we can evade the question. The only time we can lie is if they ask if you are the killer, they can say no,” Welch explained.

NIGHT SHROUDED IN MYSTERYThe event’s aren’t your typical night on the

town.“It’s very fun. It’s a reasonably priced evening

and it’s something a little different. It’s not your normal dinner and a movie. It’s like a human game of clue,” said Eleene Metcalf, director of the Culbertson murder-mysteries. “We want people to

get involved and ask questions to get clues. They are welcome to follow us around. At the end of the evening there is a murder and it’s up to the guests to figure out who did it and why.”

Welch said WhoDunnit started in New England in 2000 and branched out to Louisville in 2005. The murder-mystery dinner plays have also been going on at the Culbertson for about 15 years, Stavros said. Those evolved as an additional fund-raiser from the Culbertson’s biggest fundraiser, “Literally, A Haunted House.” Both raise funds to pay for restoration of the house, which has been going on for 33 years.

Both locations boast many sold-out performances.“I think the fact our murder-mysteries are real

mysteries and people like to solve them,” Welch said as to why he feels it is so popular.

Welch said all their scripts are fictional, written locally. All their actors are also local performers.

“We don’t use the same actors every single time,” he said. “They all put in their nuances into their character to stand out.”

Stavros said their performers are all volunteers, acting out a plotline based on the history of the home.

“We don’t have budgets for these kind of things. We make it happen,” Metcalf said. “It’s a labor of love and the people that volunteer their time, they really feel passionate about the mansion. They want to see it restored.”

“We have an incredible archive of historical documents to pull from. Though we take some cre-ative lead to find someone to kill,” she said with a laugh. “All the volunteers here, most of them have been with us for decades or more. They all know the [Culbertson] family. There’s no script. We have a general plotline and we meet … to come up with motives [for the murder].”

PERIOD ATTIREThe Culbertson puts on three performances a

year, each taking place during a different historical time period. The most recent performance, “The Fate of Culbertson Mansion: A 1960s Murder Mystery,” was based in the 1960s and had charac-ters who were trying to purchase the historic site when it was up for sale by the American Legion.

“We don’t even have to advertise. We always have a waiting list. We are always sold out,” Stavros said.

In addition to being director, Metcalf is also one of the actresses.

“I play Aunt Mary. She bakes fruit cakes and they aren’t very good. We’ve even used the fruit cake as a murder weapon,” Metcalf said. “It is really a light-hearted evening, even though it does involve murder.”

Before the final act, both locations offer prizes for the person to guess the correct answer and another prize for the most creative, but wrong answer.

Cate Gaglio-Inge, Louisville, went to a recent performance at the Culbertson.

“I really enjoyed it. I like that it’s interactive. You get to meet people and talk to people and [figure it out] as a group,” she said.

“If you’re looking for something that’s not your typical thing, this is very entertaining,” said Lyn Carter, Henryville, during a performance at the Culbertson. “You get to enjoy entertainment, food and the history of the building.”

ENTERTAINMENT This week's entertainment releases

LOUISVILLE — Incredible illusions will take center stage during ninth annual “The Magic & The Wonder” to benefit Kosair Charities and The Kids Center for Pediatric Therapies on May 22. With four talented entertain-ers sharing the stage for a good cause, audiences of all ages are in for a night full of dazzling displays of deception and side-splitting laughter, a news release stated.

Internationally renowned comedy magician and native Kentuckian Mac King head-lines the show. Now in his 16th year as a headliner at Harrah’s Las Vegas, Mac King is known for jaw-dropping illusions like catching goldfish out of mid-air and making his head completely disappear in a paper bag. His quick wit, audience interaction and imaginative tricks have earned him worldwide acclaim. Joining Mac King on this night of family-friendly spectacles is ventriloquist Stephen Knowles (and his talking dog, Delmar), the vaudeville-inspired “profes-sional eccentric” Charlie Frye, and local Louisville illusionists Patrick & Janice Miller.

Stephen Knowles is a Knoxville-based ventriloquist

and writer. He has been perform-ing comedy and magic routines for corporate events, community organizations and theatrical pro-ductions in the United States and Germany for more than 25 years. He has also produced pieces for other magicians, including a cup and balls routine that landed magician Ed Ripley an Award of Merit from the International Brotherhood of Magicians.

Charlie Frye is a fast-paced performer whose original and eccentric act has earned praise from audiences and entertainers worldwide, including Liza Min-nelli, who called him “simply one of the best and brightest acts ever.” Inspired by variety shows of olden days, Charlie is an award-winning juggler. He performs onstage with his wife/assistant, Sherry.

NEW ALBANY — The Carnegie Center for Art and History in New Albany in-vites the public to a live and silent auction of original artwork deaccessioned from the Carnegie Center’s collec-tion on Tuesday, May 24.

The silent auction will take place from noon to 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, May 24, in the center’s lower level meeting room. The Carnegie Center will close to the public briefly from 5:30-6 p.m. to prepare for the live auction. The silent auction will reopen at 6 p.m.

and last until 7 p.m., with the live auction to immedi-ately follow at 7 p.m.

The Carnegie Center is now home to 20 histori-cally important Southern Indiana paintings from the New Albany-Floyd County Public Library’s collection, including 14 works by 19th century painter, George W. Morrison. In light of the center’s new steward-ship of these paintings, a number of artworks from its collection are now being deaccessioned, many by popular local artists such as Ann Tate, Orville Car-roll, George Engle, Susan Gorsen, Rudy Pozzatti, and Henry Chodkowski, a Carnegie news release stated. The center invites you to help with the con-servation of the library’s collection, eventually to be displayed in the center’s new George W. Morrison Gallery, by attending the silent and live auctions for the deaccessioned works. All proceeds will be used

for the restoration and con-tinuing care of the library’s collection.

Admission to this event is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be

served. Absentee bids will be accepted for the live auction throughout the day on Tuesday, May 24; call 812-944-7336 for more information.
