Keith O’Leary and Margo Morrison are the creators behind the Murder Mystery USA. They are award winning writers, producers, and directors with extensive backgrounds in motion picture, television, and theatrical production. Since 1985 they have been responsible for over 7000 live and virtual mystery productions worldwide and have been featured in the print and television media in over 35 different countries.

“We do not do any of those done to death, clichéd, over the top, cheesy characters and plots” promised O’Leary. “We do a very present-day Law and Order or CSI approach with a lot of humor. You will not see any feather boas, cigarette holders, or French Maids in our productions. If you want to decorate, or wear costumes, go crazy. Our shows will work anywhere, with any motif.”

Small

'Small' Brings Big Energy to George Street Playhouse

When thinking about occupations kids say they want when they get older, a list comes to mind – doctor, superhero, firefighter, etc. But not many would find their passion at the horse racing track and say they want to become a jockey. In "Small," an autobiographical play written and performed by Robert "Bobby" Montano, the story follows Montano as he races and fulfills his dream on the horse racing tracks of Long Island, New York. It does not stop there, however. The 90-minute play is a story of love, loss and more as Montano grapples with some difficult life decisions.
