MURDER, SHE DIDN'T WRITE To Perform At Edinburgh Fringe Image

Fresh from a smash hit run at the Edinburgh Fringe at Pleasance last year, and currently enjoying a West End residency at Leicester Square Theatre, Degrees of Error bring their hilarious and innovative Murder, She Didn't Write back up to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2018. In this riotous show, the audience becomes both author and sleuth as they are invited to help to create their very own Agatha Christie-inspired masterpiece - and to watch it unfold on stage.

This cult show is building a phenomenal following with an ever growing legion of new fans.

Every night, the extraordinarily talented company create a unique space where audiences can unleash their literary prowess and create an original and hilarious improvised murder-mystery. Ms Violet in the parlour with the flamethrower? Mr Gold in Debenhams with the canon?

Using audience suggestions for crucial evidence and ingenious settings, the team create a bespoke world - and each night one lucky audience member gets to play god, choosing both the murderer and victim.

Founded in 2010, Degrees of Error are the first resident theatre company at the Bristol Improv Theatre - the first theatre in Britain dedicated to the art of improv - where they rehearse and perform regularly. Their improvised murder mystery play Murder, She Didn't Write has toured the UK and enjoyed sell-out runs at the Fringe since 2013.

Degrees of Error cordially invite Edinburgh audiences to take up their magnifying glasses, don their deerstalkers and join them for a never-before-seen (and never-to-be-seen-again), unscripted - and definitely un-pre-meditated - murder mystery.

A unique format, and an even more unique experience, that will thrill all lovers of both classic crime fiction and top level on-the-hoof comedy.
