The Logan Banner, Sunday, March 17, 2013 — Page A5 Murder mystery Publishing company, authors honored dinner theater coming to Logan Martha Sparks Society Editor

Gigi Sharp and The Meringues’ newest song, Sweet Sugar, is a hit single, topping the charts. And, Gigi has just learned that she has been nominated for a Grammy award for the song and is currently touring the nation, promoting a new album. Gigi is a fabulous singer. The Meringues are her backup singers and any one of them would like to see her deflate and go away. Gigi Sharp and her backup singers are characters in Karen Vuranch’s newest murder mystery production, “Murder Among the Meringues.” This murder mystery dinner theater, performed by the In Cahoots Players, is scheduled at Chief Logan Lodge March 23 with dinner beginning at 6 p.m. In addition to Gigi Sharp, there are the Meringues as the backup singers. Rebel Cleft is a wild child who wants to break her contract and break out on her own. Bea Mi- nor loves Gigi’s son, but Gigi is not about to let her pre- cious son marry a back-up singer. Wanda Major loves be- ing in The Meringues, but she longs to be the lead singer. And Ivory Tickler has been keeping a secret about who really wrote that Grammy nominated song.
