Murdered to Death
A comedy Drama by Peter Gordon
7.30 pm
Tuesday 28th February - Saturday 3rd March 2012
Village Hall
The scene: a country house in the 1930s. The lady of the house, Mildred Bagshot, is murdered in cold blood. Who did the dreadful deed, and why?
The house is crammed to the rafters with suspicious characters, from a smooth talking French art dealer and his high-class companion, to a crusty retired colonel and his wife. Can the timid housekeeper, Dorothy, be trusted? Even the butler seems to breathe malevolence with every step.
It's up to Inspector Pratt to solve the mystery, a copper hampered by nothing but his own complete incompetence. Perhaps he'd be better off leaving the sleuthing to the real professionals, like the elderly spinster, Joan Maple. Can they find the killer–or killers–before they strike again?
