COPAKE, NY --The Two Of Us Productions, the award winning theater company
based in Columbia County NY, is pleased to present virtual-live staged
reading of two radio dramas from Suspense Theater: The Burning Court and The
Devil’s Saint.  This performance, the ninth in their Virtual Live-Staged
Reading Series, is being presented on Saturday evening August 8th, 2020 at
7:30pm in collaboration with Friends Of The Copake Grange  

In The Burning Court  Edward Stevens, an book editor is on the train home,
recounting the story of the death of the rich uncle of his neighbor, Mark
Despard. Uncle Miles had succumbed to
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gastroenteritis> gastroenteritis, which had
left him bedridden for days. Although this was considered death from natural
causes, a housemaid reported that a woman had been visiting him, who left
through a door that had been bricked up for years. As he opens the book he
is bringing home to edit, about murders by poison, and it begins with the
trial and execution of Marie d'Aubray in 1861. There is a daguerréotype of
her attached to the chapter and it is an exact image of his wife, Marie
Stevens!  

In The Devil’s Saint a man has to prove his love by spending a night in a
mysterious bedroom that kills its  guests.  The story opens in Paris in 1927
at a fancy dress ball in the opera house. Lord Edward and Illona are
enjoying themselves--until her uncle arrives. It is then that Lord Edward
tells her uncle, Count Stefan Kohari, that they want to get married. The
problem is that Edward and Illona have only known each other four days.
Count Stefan Kohari isn't pleased. So, in order to "cure" Edward of this
infatuation, Count Stephan invites Lord Edward to his chateau. The trick is
that he has to stay in the "Tapestry Room." Illona begs him not to do it.
Will Lord Edward survive a night in the room, or will he too, die?
