Death By Design

 

WRITTEN BY ROB URBINATI
DIRECTED BY ZACH THOMAS WOODS

Glamorous English actress Sorel Benett and her Sophisticated playwright husband Edward have retreated to their country estate, after their latest play is panned by London critics. Amid much licking of wounds and hurling of barbed bon mots comes a steady stream of eccentric guests, some invited, some not. One of them, shockingly, lies lifeless on a sofa — and not by accident. To make matters worse, someone has snipped the phone lines!

So who’s the killer? There are suspects aplenty in this plush corner of English countryside: The bohemian artist. The stiff conservative politician. The fiery radical. The maid. The chauffeur. One of the Benetts themselves…or could it be the shy, sweet visitor? Combining elements of Agatha Christie and Noel Coward and housed in the immersive historic surroundings of the Brumder Mansion’s Speak Easy Theater, this hilarious murder mystery comedy is not to be missed!

“The crazy energy of a murder mystery farce is maintained by Woods and company from beginning to end. It helps that Woods is working with a really talented cast. ”
