A sprightly looking spinster wearing a lavender coat and a straw boater covered in flowers and grapes points at something out of sight. Behind her cowers a man in a green suit, wearing a black fedora. They stand in a foggy, moody environment.
A confused detective stands with his arms outsplayed, a notebook and pencil in one hand. Alongside him stands a severe looking woman in glamourous dress, draped in a fur coat. Her eyes widen dramatically.
A body lies centre stage in a theatre, bathed in moody red light. A full audience looks on.

Murder Village: An Improvised Whodunnit

After sell-out runs at Adelaide Fringe in 2024 and 2025, Murder Village returns!

Immerse yourself in a 1950s Agatha Christie novel, starring Australia's funniest improvisers. Any of the village’s suspicious denizens could be dispatched at any moment, and any of them could be the murderer. Your secret votes determine who lives, who dies and who is unmasked as the culprit. 

In Murder Village, the police inspector may be incompetent but there’s a crafty amateur sleuth on hand to sort the red herrings from the tell-tale clues. See if you can solve the crime first…
