Who Dies Wins
Written by Seymour Matthews
Directed by Roger Hodge
6 – 11 September 2004
Leon Winter always spices up his dinner parties with a practical joke or two, so when the electricity cuts out and a mysterious voice booms from the darkness, the guests on this particular night do not think the worst. Then shots ring out and the joke turns into a nightmare. The eccentric Chief Inspector Plum investigates a case that involves hidden identities, marital deception and twisted quotations from Shakespeare. And in a brilliant coup de’theatre, the audience gets a major clue to the solution well before anyone else. Funny, intriguing and exciting, this is a comedy-thriller that delivers on all fronts.
