And just what is Tea-A-Ria about?
Below is an excerpt from one of our media releases:

---Laurie Nienhaus’ second teatime comedy, Tea-A-Ria, begins at Fred's Diner on Sunday, May 16th at 5:00 p.m. The Orpheus Players of Fort Myers Beach will be performing after guests have indulged in a 1940's style dinner. A 1940's style cocktail special will also be offered. 

While Nienhaus’ first comedy, A Teatime Travesty, featured rivals in tea and love along with a reclusive horticulturist fond of poisonous plants, Tea-A-Ria is a different kind of romp. It’s the opening day of Leonie Palazotto’s tearoom and her very Italian family, who doesn’t quite grasp the concept of "teatime", is willing to do anything to help her. An English couple new to America arrives to add to the chaos, as does a most unwanted guest. Friends and family must pull together to overcome the obstacle that is Enza Malandra.

Says Nienhaus, “Likely few have had occasion to give this much thought, but murdering a guest during the tea hour is fraught with problems. And then, of course, once the deed is done there is a body to dispose of - a somewhat athletic maneuver for women dressed in their finest tea attire. (Imagine the tea hats falling askew!) So, while I can’t possibly tell you what actually happens to Miss Malandra, I can tell you this. She does finally exit the tearoom of her own free will.”
