As with everything, Lance has put his own spin on the long-running Broadway classic, opting for an intimate staging and drawing the audience into a cozy New York apartment on a stormy fall night where a nefarious set of suspects pulls off the perfect murder. Jules and the team at Torte are eagerly whipping up a murderous crime scene feast for the cast party, baking a bevy of treats like panna cotta eyeballs with blood orange coulis, deviled eggs, and savory cheese fingers with pumpkin dipping sauce. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLife seems to imitate art when a storm rolls over the Siskiyou Mountains on the day of the soir?e, ushering in gusty winds and unrelenting rain.
