The Secret of Cell Block 7
Carousel Music Theater • Boothbay Harbor, Maine • July—August 2024
Molly Clemente starred as the hard, nasty, bitter Dempsey Scott: Roger’s massage therapist and drug smuggler. Her bad attitude landed her as the audience’s killer choice on opening night and again towards the end of the show’s run.
“STORY OF THE PLAY: You’ve been sent to jail so prepare to be “booked” by a singing Marsha Clark wannabe. In your holding cell, you will meet four zany women who are awaiting trial for murder. As the plot unfolds so do the motives. Who killed Roger Mills? Could it be his pretentious sister, a co-worker who thinks she is Elvis, that sweet little girl next door, or his massage therapist who happens to deal drugs on the side? Your audience will be actively involved in this campy comedy by sifting through the physical evidence in the case and finally choosing the ending they want to see by electing a murderer! A bitingly funny script, colorful characters, and bright, catchy music make this a sure winner for your evening!”
