Loco Motive - What people are saying about this 'nail biting' dinner theatre



"Hold on as Wayne Hvingelby's thriller "Loco Motive" takes you on an unforgettable and emotional ride!"  -Donna Biggar

The Thickening Plot

Wealthy industrialist, Benedict Malarbor married Gwendolyn in 1927. Together, they had two daughters, Judith and Abby.  The Malarbor family lived contently in their manor estate in Lethbridge, also taking care of Benedict's ailing aunt, Lilith.  But, five years into the marriage, a child of Benedict's from a previous relationship came into their lives.  Five years older than the sisters, Michael had difficulties fitting into the family.  Then, things got increasingly complex a few years later when dead animals started to show up in Michael's bed without explanation.  All suspicion reared upon Michael.  Then one final tragedy.  And Benedict had no choice but to send Michael to the Brathwaite Mental Hospital in Calgary, Alberta.  

Twenty years have passed and Benedict Malarbor has been found dead in horrible vehicle accident close to their estate.  The bereaved family has been summoned to Mossleigh to meet with Benedict's Calgary based lawyer, Ron Finkle, for the reading of the will.  Little are they aware that an unexpected guest has been invited as well.  

The Malarbor family has many secrets.  Dead animals.  A murdered aunt.  A fifteen year old boy lost in a pool of madness.  Twenty years pass and with the recent death of the father, focus turns to the will.  This will be one family reunion you will not be able to forget.  All aboard.  Next stop:  intense insanity in "Loco Motive".
