July Day Trip: Murder at the Howard Johnson’s Play

Murder at the Howard Johnson’s

Newport Playhouse & Cabaret Theater, Newport, RI

Thursday, July 28th

Join us for a fabulous day at the newly renovated and reopened Newport Playhouse! 

Start with a delicious, all you can eat, buffet lunch featuring a large selection with all foods prepared onsite. Following lunch, enjoy the hilarious performance of Murder at the Howard Johnson’s.  Following the show, return to your seat in the dining room for drinks and a fun-filled Cabaret Show!

Is all fair in love? Even murder?  That’s the question posed by this light and funny suspense comedy about a love triangle in a Howard Johnson Motor Inn.  The play involves a woman, her lover, and her husband.  First, the wife and her lover plot to murder the husband.  But then, the wife and her husband plot to murder the lover.  When that doesn’t work, the husband and the lover plot to murder the wife… but this attempt, like the others, fails in a hilarious way!

Face Masks are required to be worn in Newport Playhouse unless actively eating or drinking.

COST: $88 per person includes charter bus transportation, fabulous buffet lunch, matinee performance of “Murder at the Howard Johnson’s”, and cabaret show.  Driver tip is not included.
