Red Herring

Theatre in the Round
245 Cedar Avenue Minneapolis

It's 1952: America's working on the H-bomb and watching I Love Lucy every Monday night...Senator Joe McCarthy's daughter just got engaged to a Communist spy...and police detective Maggie Pelletier has to find out who dumped a body in the Boston Bay. Red Herring is a screwball romantic comedy, a hard-boiled mystery, and a total spoof of film noir movies, the Cold War, and America in the '50s.
