At the Skokie Detective Charter School, all the students are detectives-in-training, learning firsthand how to follow the facts and find a logical solution. But these future super sleuths are about to encounter their biggest case yet when students start acting strangely, monsters are spotted in the hallway, and their teacher goes missing! These Tiny Private Eyes reconstruct the day's events through four classic story-telling perspectives (film noir, young adult mystery, Edwardian romance, and Spaghetti Western) to solve the mystery in this clever and fast-paced comedy.

Reviews
"Everyone likes a good mystery so it goes to figure that they especially like several mysteries all packed into one... the play offers some juicy and awfully fun roles for its young cast."
--Mike Isaacs, Skokie Review
