Hale Centre Theatre has started a seven-week run of “Lucky Stiff,” a murder-mystery farce that features mistaken identities, millions in diamonds and a wheelchair-bound corpse. 

An English shoe salesman who’s set to inherit $6 million is forced to take the corpse of his recently murdered uncle on a weeklong vacation to Monte Carlo where he must pass him off as alive or else lose the money. 

The run started Aug. 18 and goes through Oct. 1. The two-hour show goes off at 7:30 p.m. Wednesdays through Saturdays with additional 4 p.m. shows Fridays and Saturdays. There is no show Wednesday, Aug. 31, or a 7:30 p.m. show Saturday, Sept. 3. 

Tickets are $30 for youth and $45 for adults.
