Clue

September 15th – November 5th on Gilliam Stage

Written by Sandy Rustin, based on the screenplay by Jonathan Lynn / Additional Material by Hunter Foster and Eric Price / Based on the Paramount Pictures Motion Picture and the Hasbro board game CLUE / Original Music by Michael Holland

Based on the iconic 1985 Paramount movie and classic board game, Clue is a hilarious comedy-meets-murder mystery. The tale begins at a remote mansion, where six mysterious guests assemble for an unusual dinner party where murder and blackmail are on the menu. When their host turns up dead, they all become suspects. Miss Scarlett, Professor Plum, Mrs. White, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock and Colonel Mustard race to find the killer as the body count stacks up. Clue is the comedy whodunit that will leave both cult-fans and newcomers in stitches as they try to figure out…WHO did it, WHERE, and with WHAT!
