It’s New Year’s Eve in a quiet corner of Kent and a killer is in the house… We meet Jonny ‘The Cyclops’-the notorious gangster, his glamorous wife, his trigger-happy sidekick, his mum—who’s seeing things, her very jittery carer, plus a vicar who’s hiding something and a nervous burglar dressed as a clown. Throw in a suitcase full of cash, a stash of deadly weapons, and one infamous unsolved murder… What could possibly go wrong? Join us for a murder mystery with a difference. One house. Seven suspects and a Murder at Midnight… Written by acclaimed writer Torben Betts and produced by the award-winning Original Theatre (Birdsong, Murder In The Dark, The Mirror Crack’d) Murder At Midnight is a gripping murder mystery filled with twists, chilling suspense and wickedly dark humour–guaranteed to keep you guessing until the final stroke of midnight.
