The school has been in his family for generations and his sister attends the school along with the daughters of many influential people. Charlie also has a huge crush on the beautiful and dedicated headmistress of the school. The only problem is that Charlie's young sister and her girlfriends may be involved with the mysterious disappearance of several prominent individuals.

And to complicate things, Rudi, the handsome ski instructor, isn't quite what he seems and Fritz, the gardener, is very menacing.

The combination of romance, mystery and comedy all make for an entertaining evening of theater, suitable for all ages.
