The cat and the canary

the long version

"The Cat and the Canary" takes place at Glencliff Manor on New York's Hudson River in the year of 1921. Mr. Cyrus Canby West, the owner of the estate, has died leaving a will. Twenty years later, the six heirs who are distant cousins, have been summoned from far away places to be present at the reading of the will. With the diverse personalities of the cousins and a few other eccentric characters, this makes for a very suspenseful night.
