The Children’s Hospital will get the badly needed
new wing once the Starlight Sapphire has been sold to the highest bidder. In all its 2621 years, the gem has never passed
hands smoothly but how much of the bizarre history is fact and how much is fantasy? The oddball assortment of buyers includes
a washed up actress, foreign dignitaries, a teenage country and western singing sensation, a wealthy computer geek and his
lawyer as well as feuding family members. Would any action be too extreme for those obsessed with possessing the Starlight
Sapphire?
The Mystery of the Starlight Sapphire is a three scene
play with dinner occurring between scenes One and Two and dessert between scenes Two and Three. The cast is comprised of four
males, six females and 2 roles for either male or female performers.
Following the script are Director's Notes and casting information. The file
has 3 pictures for costume ideas and does take a bit of time to download. Ancillary materials and the front and back
of a printable brochure detailing the history of the sapphire are separate downloads. We suggest putting brochures on
the table so that when the audience arrives they can get a feel for the story. They may be editted for your production.
