Written by Henry Lewis, Henry Shields & Jonathan Sayer

What would happen if Sherlock Holmes and Monty Python had an illegitimate Broadway baby? You’d get New York and London’s award-winning comedy! Called “the funniest play Broadway has ever seen” (Huffington Post), this classic murder mystery is chock-full of mishaps, mayhem, and madcap mania! Welcome to the opening night of The Murder at Haversham Manor, where things are quickly going from bad to utterly disastrous. With an unconscious leading lady, a corpse that can’t play dead, and actors who trip over everything (including their lines), it’s “comic gold” (Variety) sure to bring down the house.

(Estimated) 2 hours with an intermission.
Age appropriateness: 8 and up

Thursdays – Saturdays at 8 pm
Sunday Matinees at 2 pm
Tickets: $29 Reserved Seating
