Event details

Following the huge success of the smash hit original play and exhausted from standing ovations night after night, Cluedo – the hilarious whodunnit – is back on stage in 2024 with a New Chapter, starring Ellie Leach – reigning champion of Strictly Come Dancing – in her stage acting debut as Miss Scarlet and Jason Durr (Casualty, Heartbeat) as Colonel Mustard.

Set in the swinging 1960s, Cluedo 2 is a brand-new tale, with a new house, new suspects, and lots of new bodies!

If you’re a fan of the much-loved board game – you’re gonna enjoy this! If you enjoyed the hysterical first play – you’re gonna love this one! And if you missed the first play it doesn’t matter! This is a brand-new story, so come and have some fun – you’ll love it too!

Rock ‘n’ roll legend Rick Black has not had a hit for years and he’s broke. But as he settles into his grand new expensive home, Graveny Manor, Rick is desperate to revive his fading career and reclaim his fame and fortune… and is prepared to do anything to get it back.

Excited to reveal his long-awaited comeback album, Rick has assembled his supermodel wife, The Honourable Emerald Peacock; his manager, Colonel Eugene Mustard, long-time roadie “Professor” Alex PlumAnnabel Scarlett his trusted interior designer, and housekeeper Mrs White, who came with the house and who knows all its secrets.

But there is still someone missing… Rick’s former song-writing partner “The Reverend” Hal Green disappeared mysteriously at the same time as Rick’s career went downhill; without him, has Rick still got it?

And where did that butler come from?

As the bodies pile up, our infamous colourful characters uncover each other’s mysteries and secrets, as they dart from room to room trying to escape the murderer and survive the night.

With an all-new story, written by BAFTA Award winners Laurence Marks and Maurice Gran and directed by Mark Bell – Director of the original hit UK production of Cluedo and the global hits The Play That Goes Wrong and A Play About A Bank Robbery – Cluedo 2: The Next Chapter is a rollicking spoof of a comedy that will keep you guessing right up to the final twist and invites budding detectives of all ages, from 8 to 80 and beyond, to watch for the clues and unravel the secrets, as we all try to work out whodunnit… with what… and where!!
