The Farndale Ladies tackle this Agatha Christie-style romp with great
aplomb. The usual gathering of likely and unlikely characters at
Checkmate Manor assembling for the reading of a Will soon leads to
murder – but who committed it? All sorts of suspects abound (each of
course with more than adequate motive) – from the obvious ‘was it Pawn
the Butler?’ to Régine the French Maid, who is not all she seems, via
an improbable cast of Bishops, Rooks and Kings. Was the family
solicitor, Mr Goodbody, somehow implicated? Bodies start to pile up
all over the place and Inspector O’Reilly is faced with one of his
most testing cases to date to bring the culprit to justice.
Led by their indomitable Chair, Mrs Reece, the Ladies maintain the
suspense right to the very end. And just to make the price of
admission extra-specially worth it, they have even arranged not only a
Fashion Show for the more discerning audience, but a who-dunnit quiz
for all to enjoy while helping O’Reilly bring the murderer to book.
Every drama
group knows the horror’s of what can go wrong ‘on the night’ and the
ladies of the F.A.H.E.T.G. are no different… scenery collapses, cues
are missed and lines forgotten as the excruciating evening unfolds….
This hilarious
comedy will have you crying with laughter as the ladies produce a
seamless evening of disaster when they present their cunning whodunnit
‘Murder at Checkmate Manor’
