Murder in Play

Following their 2025 sell out production of 'The 39 Steps,' Belper Players are proud to present 'Murder in Play' by Simon Brett.Boris Smolensky's budget repertory production of "Murder at Priorswell Manor" is looking decidedly shaky.

The cast are more interested in their egos than the play and life imitates art when Boris's wife, Renee, is murdered on stage.

Simon Brett's hilarious text, a worthy companion to his Charles Paris theatrical thriller novels, ruthlessly satirizes the politics of the inept company and the numerous red herrings keep the audience guessing until the final moments of the play.The performance on Friday 5 June will have BSL interpretation.This amateur production of 'Murder in Play' is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French, Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
