Murdered to Death
By Peter Gordon
Directed by Julian Woolford
A hilarious spoof of the best of the Agatha Christie traditions, this
star-studded whodunnitt twists and turns with side-splitting antics and
ever-increasing merriment and confusion.
Set in a country manor house in the glorious 1930s, the colourful
cast of characters guaranteed to delight include Bunting the Butler
(Nicholas Smith Are You
Being Served); Colonel Charles Craddock with the prerequisite stiff
upper lip (Geoffrey Davies - Doctor
in the House/ EastEnders); the bumbling local inspector (Trevor
Bannister - Are You Being Served) and his Constable
(Richard Elis EastEnders);
and a well meaning local sleuth Miss Maple (Anna
Karen On the Buses / EastEnders) who seems to attract murder
wherever she goes. Add to this a high society debutante, a shady French
art dealer and his moll, and supporting cast, and you have the perfect
recipe for uproarious fun and hysterical happenings. But following the
mysterious death of the houses owner, will the murderer be unmasked
before every one else has met their doom, or will the audience die laughing
first?
