The Mystery of Edwin Drood
Book, Music and Lyrics by Rupert Holmes
Directed by Fran Page
Performed in The Hanaway Theatre
Based on Charles Dickens’ final unfinished novel, this hilarious whodunit invites the audience to solve its mystery by choosing the identity of the murderer. The tale is presented as a show-within-a-show, as the Music Hall Royale – a delightfully loony Victorian theatre company – presents Dickens’ brooding mystery.
