Murder Village: An Improvised Whodunnit

  • Comedy
  • Theatre

Immerse yourself in the cosy world of a 1950s Agatha Christie-style novel as Melbourne’s funniest improvisers craft eccentric characters and perplexing mysteries from your suggestions. Any of the village’s suspicious denizens could be dispatched at any moment, and any of them could be the murderer! It’s your secret ballot votes that determine who lives, who dies, and who will be unmasked as the culprit.

In Murder Village, the local police inspector may be woefully incompetent but thankfully there is always an amateur sleuth on hand to sort the red herrings from the tell-tale clues. See if you can solve the crime first… whether you see one show or all of them, no two chapters of this critically acclaimed show are the same.

Now celebrating a decade of wowing audiences across Australia, Murder Village: An Improvised Whodunnit is a comedic off-the-cuff mystery created in real time by skilled improvisers.
