The Game’s Afoot (or Holmes for the Holidays)

NOVEMBER 29-DECEMBER 15, 2024

THE GAMES AFOOT (OR HOLMES FOR THE HOLIDAYS) – a farcical murder mystery by Ken Ludwig
Directed by Rhonda Clark
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. The danger and hilarity are non-stop in this glittering whodunit set during the Christmas holidays.
“An inspired whodunit…a snappy, clever drawing-room mystery. There are twists in playwright Ken Ludwig’s The Game’s Afoot that cause the audience to gasp.” —The Cleveland Plain Dealer
“…amusing and often extremely funny.” —Chicago Theare Review
