Described by some reviewers as a “mixture of Agatha Christie, Monty Python, and Abbot and Costello”, this is a fabulous mystery farce concerning newly-weds Edgar and Mavis. Two days after their wedding Mavis and her lover plan to kill her wealthy new husband, Edgar Hollister, and seem to have succeeded quite quickly and all too easily, but have they? The arrival of Edgar's dotty daughter Susan, with new fiance in tow, complicates everything as they all try to solve the mystery of Edgar's disappearance, and the interfering housekeeper fails to help as do the two bumbling members of the Harrogate Constabulary. ... Murder has never been funnier!
The play runs from the 18th to 22nd June, and the box office will be open from 10th June, 10-12noon daily (except Sundays). Tel: 01626 863061
