KEEVIL DRAMA GROUP BIDS US ADIEU ADIEU
So long, farewell, auf weidersehen, goodbye! After 50 years of bringing lots of fun and laughter to our village community, in spite of numerous attempts to cajole and persuade new members, the final curtain has fallen on the Drama Group. And so, sadly, 2024 sees us bid farewell to homegrown am-dram with a last Murder Mystery…
So long folks, and thanks for all the fish!
The 2022 Murder-Mystery production of ‘I’d Sooner See Him Dead’ by Richard Adams
Murder Mystery evenings are a light hearted murder mystery production, where the audience pit their wits to try and solve the murder and name the guilty party. You can come along as individuals or teams and there is a prize for the winners.
At the end of Act 1, we serve supper, and clues are usually offered. After Act 2, dessert is served; you can interrogate the cast whilst coffee is served and you can decide whodunnit. Your accusation sheets are then collected, before Act 3 in which the murderer is revealed. Accusation sheets are studied and prizes awarded.
Our 2022 production in November – the first since Covid – was also attended by the playwright Richard Adams himself, who in a very rare public appearance joined the cast on stage at the end of the production and helped everyone bid farewell to Geoff West as he retires from the Drama Group after many MANY years treading the boards of Keevil.
