9 actors, a Master of Ceremonies, set dressing, information pack

Description
Sit back and relax (but not too much) while we transport you to The Primrose Glade Hotel (2 stars) where Hotel Manager Rex Wiltshire and wife prepare to celebrate their third wedding anniversary, with an evening not to be forgotten.

Join them, the hotel staff and guests as they perform a short play culminating in the murder of one of them. In teams, discover who committed the murder and why?

The first challenge of the evening will be to think of and agree on an appropriate team name. Then, as the plot unfolds you will need to keep your wits about you for clues and red herrings! When the play is over the teams will have the chance to consider the evidence and pose a question to a cast member of their choice. Each team has just one chance to ask a question but they will need to listen intently and choose their question with care, they will need to think on their feet, especially if another team asks their question. After all the teams have asked their questions they will have one last opportunity to consider their verdict before deciding who is guilty. Remember not only do they need to correctly identify the murderer but also their motive! When all the answers have been handed in the cast will return to the stage and the answer revealed in true Poirot style.

Background
Copthorne Players where formed over 30 years ago and have many experienced actors and actresses within their group. The current Murder Mystery cast has been together for several years and has had great fun performing Murders for many organisations. These events are commonly used as fundraisers and take the group far and wide.

We guarantee that this will provide your guests with a fun, relaxing evening but with a competitive edge, where their team work and observation skills will be tested to the full. Are they ready for the challenge?
