"DON'T MISS THIS ONE."
"One of the better shows I have seen. Not just this year but many years."
"Laugh out loud clever, great pacing, and an overall enjoyable performance."
"Varney and Colley know all the tropes of the murder mystery universe and nailed them with a wink to the audience who gobbled up every fast-paced exchange and laughed out loud."
" Davis DeRock absolutely nails the character of Sam Spade. Campy, witty, hilarious. Really well done."
"A true treat for anyone who loves a good femme fatale, a private dick, and a mournful trumpet solo."

"The Maltese Murder" at the KC Fringe Festival
When a book collector is murdered in a public library, a private detective is hired to find the killer. He meets a host of sinister characters hunting for a valuable autographed edition of Dashiell Hammett’s “The Maltese Falcon” that was donated to the Friends of the Library. Originally commissioned by the Johnson County Public Library for the 2008 National Endowment for the Arts’ Big Read, Fringe veterans Bryan Colley and Tara Varney brings this hilarious film noir parody to the Unicorn stage.
