Something's Afoot at The 5th Avenue Theatre and Seattle audiences are invited to solve the musical murder mystery on stage March 1 - 24, 2024.
A thrilling whodunit, Something's Afoot pokes fun at classic Agatha Christie stories by combining the classic elements of the golden age of detective fiction with toe-tapping tunes and side-splitting comedy.

Set against the backdrop of a secluded country estate during a raging thunderstorm, Something's Afoot introduces a cast of eccentric characters who find themselves entangled in a web of secrets, surprises, and suspense. As members of the group are picked off one by one, the survivors frantically race to solve the question of who could possibly want them dead.
“Directing Something's Afoot is a thrilling journey of crafting suspenseful surprises with a touch of humor to create an experience that leaves audiences guessing and grinning in equal measure,” said director Bill Berry. “It's a must-see for anyone seeking an outing of entertainment that will keep them on the edge of their seat and laughing hysterically until the final curtain.”
