Play Co-Written By King Cartoonist to Be Performed Next Month

By: E&P Staff "Santacide" -- the play co-written by "Rhymes With Orange" cartoonist Hilary Price and radio DJ Kelsey Flynn -- will be performed Dec. 7, 8, and 9 at the Northampton (Mass.) High School Theater.

The staging of the comedy, about a mother/son detective team at the North Pole investigating Santa's murder, is a benefit for the New Century Theatre in Northampton.

"Santacide" was previously performed as a staged reading last year at Smith College. Price said this is the first full-fledged production of the play.

Price's "Rhymes With Orange" comic is distributed by King Features Syndicate.
