BREATHTAKING MYSTERY AND HIGH HILARITY IN EQUAL PARTS.

Winner of the 2012 Edgar® Award for Best Play from The Mystery Writers of America. In this gripping yet comedic play, Broadway star William Gillette hosts a weekend gathering at his Connecticut castle. When one of the guests is murdered, the festivities take a perilous turn. With Gillette channeling his inner Sherlock Holmes, the race is on to uncover the killer before another victim falls prey to the mysteries lurking within the house of tricks and mirrors. The danger and laughter are non-stop in this glittering whodunit set during the Christmas holidays.

“Wacky events with ample Shakespearean quotes and madcap movements is both a comedy treat and a fine mystery.” – Chicago Critic

“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

The Game’s Afoot gives you everything you love about great live theatre. Billed as a comedy thriller you will find yourself swept along for a wild and funny ride.”
The Examiner

“A delightful, silly, engaging bit of farce that’s a wonderful alternative to your more standard Christmas fare.” – Talkin Broadway
