A laugh-out-loud slapstick whodunnit featuring four actors, a dozen characters and a whole load of chaos.
Described as “witty, endearing and good clean fun”, we follow a bumbling detective as he is called upon to uncover the mystery of a priceless stolen painting, but when he cannot solve it himself, he is forced to enlist the help of an old nemesis. Uh oh. Together, the pair must interrogate the many characterful suspects that reside at the manor, in order to catch the conniving culprit and solve the crime of the century.
Shoddy Theatre was first established in 2018, their first production A Shoddy Detective and the Art of Deception was such a hit that it was awarded funding from Essex University to become an established theatrical production company. Since then, spearheaded by Mitch Donaldson, Shoddy have gone from strength to strength and their new partnership with Joshua Beaumont and Matthew Emeny will see their largest tour yet and lots more to come for the future of Shoddy Theatre.
