"Don Lowry’s Murder Most Foul, about a group of students rehearsing a murder mystery written by their assistant principal. Their frustrated “director,” Ashley (Tamar Gelber), can’t get the cast to cooperate with any of her instructions. Mr. Powell’s “corpse” (Hensley, playing the role of Gary) won’t stay dead, everyone keeps ad-libbing their lines, one girl wants to change her character’s name in the script from Darlene Jones to Darlene Clooney (George Clooney’s “niece”), while another insists on being referred to as Wendy Montana, Hannah Montana’s sister. In addition to Hensley’s endearing inability to remain immobile, director Evan Harpin gets some nice attention deficit disorder acting out of Ciara Bowser, Erin McCarthy, Molly Stone, and Gabrielle White."
