Stone’s Throw Dinner Theatre brings The Murder Room, a British mystery farce in three acts, to the Carthage stage May 7-9 and 14-16 in 2021.
The Murder Room is written by Jack Sharkey and directed by Shannon Wendt. It is produced by special arrangement with Samuel French, Inc.
If Monty Python were tasked with rewriting an Agatha Christie murder mystery, the results wouldn’t be half as funny as “The Murder Room”.
Mavis Templeton Hollister returns to her small estate in northern England only to find her husband, Edgar, waiting to greet her… which is slightly distressing, considering she murdered him earlier. She quickly “finishes the job” but Edgar’s disappearance sets off a remarkable zany chain of events. Plodding police inspectors, mysterious hidden compartments, dim-witted relatives, and noisy servants all make “The Murder Room” an utterly charming place to be.
This crime thriller spoof is sure to be a killer comedy.
