Murder and blackmail are on the menu when six mysterious guests assemble for a dinner party at Boddy Manor--and become suspects when their host turns up dead. Led by Wadsworth the butler, the guests race to find the killer as the body count stacks up. Was it Mrs. Peacock in the study with the knife? Or Colonel Mustard in the library with the wrench? Based on the cult 1985 Paramount movie and inspired by the classic Hasbro game, Sandy Rustin's adaptation of the farce-meets-murder-mystery was called "a welcome throwback to an era of physical comedy" by The New York Times. Says TheaterMania, "Sandy Rustin adapts Jonathan Lynn's infinitely quotable screenplay, borrowing its most sparkling gems but fashioning her own piece in the spirit of classic ensemble farce." Whether audience members are longtime followers or newcomers to "Clue", this comedic whodunit should offer a bloody good time. Acclaimed Bay Area director Nancy Carlin directs Center REP's production.
