A Studio Theatre Production
By David Wembridge
The Thursday Madeira Club. It doesn’t have to be a Thursday. Or Madeira. But it is murder.
When the playwright is shot dead during rehearsals, the drama moves backstage. Suspicions run high, motives multiply, and the official investigation is getting absolutely nowhere. But the show must go on! Never mind a killer on the loose—who is going to sort the interval refreshments? Step forward the theatre’s two ice cream ladies, forced to take centre stage. Salted caramel is swapped for sleuthing in this crazy whodunit.
Expect chaotic twists, laugh-out-loud action, and an inflatable Christmas tree, in a comedy that’s miles away from any usual cosy retirement village…
