The Theatre Group At SBCC To Present THE GAME'S AFOOT by Ken Ludwig

By:

The Theatre Group at SBCC is excited to present the comic mystery, THE GAME'S AFOOT by Ken Ludwig, October 10-27, 2018 in the Garvin Theatre, directed by Katie Laris and featuring some of the area's best loved actors.

It is December 1936, and Broadway star William Gillette, admired the world over for his leading role in the play Sherlock Holmes, has invited his fellow cast members to his Connecticut castle for a weekend of revelry. But when one of the guests is stabbed to death, the festivities in this isolated house of tricks and mirrors quickly turn dangerous. It is then up to Gillette himself, as he assumes the persona of his beloved Holmes, to track down the killer before the next victim appears. The danger and hilarity are non-stop in this glittering mystery, a perfect prelude to the upcoming holiday season.

"An inspired whodunit...a snappy, clever, drawing-room mystery." The Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Winner of the 2012 Mystery Writers of America Edgar Allen Poe Award for Best Play.

The Game's Afoot features: Madison Duree, Brian Harwell, Leslie Gangl Howe, Sean Jackson, Nancy Nufer, Benjamin Offringa, Jenna Scanlon, Leslie Ann Story.
