CLUE Comes To Waterbury’s Palace Theater In December

CLUE, the murder mystery comedy inspired by the Hasbro board game and adapted from the 1985 Paramount Pictures film, will play Waterbury’s Palace Theater from December 16 through December 18, 2025.

Led by Broadway Director Casey Hushion (Associate Director of Mean Girls and The Prom, Associate Resident Director of Aladdin), the production follows six guests who assemble at Boddy Manor for an unforgettable night of murder, blackmail, and mystery. CLUE combines slapstick comedy and suspense in a fast-paced adaptation that asks: was it Mrs. Peacock in the study with the knife, or Colonel Mustard in the library with the wrench?
