We still need to know some information.Let's go and ask some theatre workers.

Tony, the director

I don't know what happened. When I left the theatre only Greg was here.

Greg, an actor

I was alone in the theatre when I heard a noise. I looked around but didn't find anything strange. I left around 9 pm.

I left around 8:30. I wanted to meet a girl but she didn't show up. I was waiting for about 20 minutes then I went home. Tony introduced her to me. It was strange. She didn't even text me.

Jack, an actor

Tony, the director

I don't know much about that girl. She's an actress and she applied for a role to our theatre. But you know, no women accepted here.

Lionel, an actor

I left quite early. Tony and Greg were still here. Jack has just left before me. Tony and Greg were arguing.

Tony, the director

We weren't really arguing. We didn't agree on something, that's all. Well, I can't tell you on what.

Greg, an actor

Tony was very mean. I told him I know he's hiding something. Before he left he was talking to someone backstage.

Tony, the director

You know, sometimes I talk to myself. Nobody was there with me.

Pete, an actor

I left my phone in my dressing room. I came back around 9:30 and just before I entered, I saw Tony and a woman leaving. They were quite far so they didn't see me. He seemed to be nervous and they were in a hurry.

Let's see what happened in chronological order.

The last person is Samuel, the costume designer. Read his answers then find out the questions.

1. Yes, no women are allowed.2. It is a Greek comedy. 3. Of course, they do. Like in ancient plays, they all wear masks. 4. I make them, who else? 5. Actually, one mask is missing.
