“Murdered to Death”  by Peter Gordon, Directed by Joan Ertel

26th October – 9th November 2013

This hilarious spoof in the best of Agatha Christie traditions is set in a country manor house in the 1930’s with an assembled cast of characters guaranteed to delight – Bunting the butler; and English Colonel with the prerequisite stiff upper lip; a shady French art dealer and his moo; the bumbling police inspector and a well-meaning local sleuth who seems to attract murder wherever she goes – they’re all here, and caught up in the side-splitting antics which follow the mysterious death of the house’s owner.  It soon becomes clear that the murderer isn’t finished yet, but will the murderer be unmasked before everyone else has met their doom?

The action of the play takes place in the lounge of a country manor house in the 1930’s
