Based on the iconic 1985 Paramount movie which was inspired by the classic Hasbro board game, Clue is a hilarious farce-meets-murder mystery. The tale begins at a remote mansion, where six mysterious guests assemble for an unusual dinner party where murder and blackmail are on the menu. When their host turns up dead, they all become suspects. Led by Wadsworth – the butler, Miss Scarlett, Professor Plum, Mrs. White, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock and Colonel Mustard race to find the killer as the body count stacks up.

Clue is the comedy whodunit that will leave both cult-fans and newcomers in stitches as they try to figure out…WHO did it, WHERE, and with WHAT!

How Do You Like Me Now (HDYLMN) Productions, Inc. exists because great success is the best revenge.

The organization formed following the suicide death of a local young man named Nicolas.

“Nic” had been bullied relentlessly about his perceived sexual orientation — perceived because at just 14, how could anyone have known for sure? It was October 8, 2011 while his classmate celebrated a birthday just 2 miles away that Nic make the tragic choice to leave this world, his family and friends.

We, the founders of HDYLMN (Ed, Grant and Robert), felt compelled to take action. For months, we attempted to honor Nic’s memory and raise awareness of the devastating impact of bullying by working with local community theaters to bring a production of “The Laramie Project” to the stage.

Finally, frustrated by insurmountable obstacles, we started our own nonprofit theater to produce the play in Howard County, thus beginning an amazing adventure. And though Robert soon moved on to pursue other opportunities, HDYLMN continues to push forward in this mission.

The organization has expanded into two divisions: (1) Stand Up For…Theatre (SUFT) presents musicals and dramatic plays with themes that advocate acceptance over tolerance. (2) Erase Hate Through Art (EHTA) curates fine art exhibitions of original work by artists who support our fight against bullying and hate crimes in the LGBTQ community and for all of humanity.
EHTA also volunteers to curate exhibits at More Than Java Café (MTJC) on Main Street in Laurel, Md.
