In 1996, The Harwood Prairie Playhouse put on the comedy "But Why Bump Off Barnaby?" by Rick Abbott
   
Barnaby is murdered at a family gathering at Marlgate Manor. He had a motive to murder every-body else but no one had a reason to want him dead. While dying, he scrawled the letters ba r which implicates everyone. While the bizarre group frantically tries to unmask the murderer, people vanish, poison is found in the sherry and the police take forever to arrive. Meanwhile, there's a secret treasure to be found, a mystifying limerick to decode and all sorts of doom to be avoided before the killer is finally unmasked and destroyed.
