"Death In The Chapel" - the Strange Happenings Murder Mystery especially devised for the Edinburgh Fringe 2003.
Set in--and performed in--the actual chapel in which Agatha Christie was married in 1930 "Death In The Chapel" uses that event as the starting point for a new mystery, but any resemblance to actual events stops there as Strange Happenings feature their usual mixture of outrageous characters and tongue in cheek plots.
Some reviews from Fringe 2003:
The Stage & London Theatre Review
Death in the Chapel St. Cut's An amiable comic whodunit with an opportunity for the audience to play along by trying to guess the who, how and why, this modest two-hander is a vehicle for two personable performers. Playing all the roles, with the most minimal of costume and voice changes, the two actors keep thing moving swiftly while carefully dropping both clues and red herrings until they stop the action to let us record our deductions before they solve the case. A slight piece, but thoroughly entertaining. Gerald Berkowitz Death In The Chapel Strange Happenings. If you love Cluedo or murder mystery dinner parties then you will absolutely love solving the riddle of who killed Reverend Donald MacDonald. This is a genuinely entertaining show and a great early morning energiser. twrating: 3/5 [clm] Audience Comments : Strathmore Springs Personal Review Page from official Fringe Website: "one not to be missed" "thoroughly enjoyable" " a hoot" "this show was lots of fun" "great fun" "everyone would enjoy this very entertaining show" " a must to see" " wonderfully funny" " lots of fun and a murder mystery to solve" "try and see it" "it was great entertainment--and I'm not just saying this because I got it right!"
