Beverly Theatre Guild Presents Auditions for Clue: On Stage
Adapted from the screenplay by Jonathan Lynn, Written by Sandy Rustin
Staff:
Director: Anna Rachel Troy
Assistant Director: Lewis R. Jones
Producers: Tanya Harasym & Kenneth J. Krajniak
Show Synopsis:
The classic board game is brought to life in Clue: On Stage! Six guests are invited to a dinner party thrown by an anonymous host. They are given aliases–Colonel Mustard, Mrs. White, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock, Professor Plum, and Miss Scarlet. Though discouraged from revealing personal information, it is soon discovered that all of them have fallen victim to the same blackmailer, their very host of the evening. Each is presented with a weapon and an option: pay their extortionist double, or kill the innocent butler. What follows is a madcap, slapstick evening full of murder, mystery, and laughs as they seek to puzzle out the culprit amongst criminals.
