“Our fauxtel has many long-term residents— some who are dead but don’t know it.
Most notable among them is Madame Blavatskaya.
Madame Blavatskaya is said to frequent the Lobby Bar and Hotel Spa on First Fridays,
but really, Madame materializes on her on timeline at her own whim.
Madame Blavatskaya usually materializes on First Fridays; yet Madame tends to be whimsical and may appear at additional times, or even not at all!

Night Must Fall
A Thriller By Emlyn Williams
September 18 – October 11, 2025
Jacqueline Jones as Mrs. Bramson
A secluded British cottage.
A dead body in the woods.
A strange visitor at the door.
…and night will fall soon!
When the imperious, embittered Mrs. Bramson learns that her young maid Dora is pregnant, she summons the child’s presumed father to her bungalow. The young man, Dan, is charming but mysterious. Could he be responsible for the recent murder of a local woman, and could Mrs. Bramson be his next victim? Skillfully, Dan insinuates himself into Mrs. Bramson’s affections and attemps to seduce her skeptical niece, Olivia. Despite strong suspicions of Dan’s diabolical intentions, Olivia finds herself attracted to, and fascinated by, the young man.
A classic psychological thriller first produced on Broadway in 1936, with a Broadway revival in 1999, starring Matthew Broderick. It has been adapted to film three times (1937, 1954, 1964). Takes place in a British cottage in the woods, where a murder has taken place. Suspects abound.
