Written by Simon Brett | Directed by Andrew Husband

A thrilling, comedic whodunit, Murder in Play takes audiences behind the scenes of a play within a play. When a group of actors and crew members gather to rehearse a new murder mystery, they are shocked when a real-life murder occurs during the production! The line between fiction and reality blurs as the cast becomes suspects in a deadly game of cat and mouse. With quick wit, plenty of red herrings, and a delightful mix of intrigue and humour, the suspense builds to a surprising and hilarious climax.

A fast-paced, laugh-out-loud murder mystery that will keep you guessing—who will survive the play’s deadly plot?

Content Warning: The play includes references to violence and some adult language. While it is a comedic mystery, certain themes may be intense for younger audiences.

Please note: Doors will open at 7pm for evening performances and 2pm for matinee performances to allow our volunteers and cast to prepare the theatre. If you arrive earlier, you may need to wait outside. Thank you for your understanding!
