The Bat, by Mary Roberts Rinehart


Listen Later

The Bat, by Mary Roberts Rinehart was first performed in 1920 and was heavily influential on murder mysteries. It also inspired Bob Kane to create comic book superhero Batman. Although generally appropriate for any theatre, there are racial stereotypes within the script that will need to be addressed if it were to be produced.
