Midwynter Murder

Made2Measure Theatre Company presents Wingfield Barns' very own Christmas whodunit.

The arrival in the village of a renowned author on Christmas day causes a stir, as her fans vie with each other for the famous writer's attention.

Meanwhile, in one of the new, post-war council houses on the edge of the village, an elderly couple live apart from the tight social circle of the well-heeled set. But feathers are ruffled when the new arrival strikes up a friendship with the couple.

Taking an interest in their tales of life in service in the big houses in the village and of working the land on the squire's estate, the writer hopes the old couple's reminiscences will provide valuable detail for her forthcoming historical novel.

Jealousy, resentment and snobbery combine to create a toxic mix, adding a dangerous edge to the festive season.

This will be an interactive promenade performance. Mulled wine/apple juice and mince pies included in ticket price.
