English McGuffins: “Checkmate,” at the Richmond Hill Barn Theatre through July 17

By Dee Canfield
Bob Carroll, Nathan Johnson, and Lindsay Schell in Checkmate

I love works that play with time, moving backward and forward through flashbacks and memories. I also love witty British mysteries. And I really love seeing works that succeed on the stage. So it was with high expectations that a friend and I went to see Friday’s production of Checkmate, Leslie Sands’ 1993 murder-mystery currently in production at the Richmond Hill Barn Theatre.
