CLUE: On Stage (High School Edition) | March 8 & 9 @ 7pm, March 10 @ 2pm | KMHS Auditorium
Based on the iconic 1985 Paramount movie which was inspired by the classic Hasbro board game, Clue is a hilarious farce-meets-murder mystery. The tale begins in 1954 at a remote mansion; six mysterious guests assemble for an unusual dinner party where murder and blackmail are on the menu. When their host turns up dead, they all become suspects. Led by Wadsworth (the butler), Miss Scarlett, Professor Plum, Mrs. White, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock, and Colonel Mustard race to find the killer as the body count stacks up.
Clue is the comedy whodunit that will leave both cult-fans and newcomers in stitches as they try to figure out...WHO did it, WHERE, and with WHAT!
Content Warning: CLUE: On Stage (High School Edition) includes prop weapons including revolvers and gunshot sound effects. The plot references some mature themes, including various reasons a person may pay blackmail and/or commit murder. The High School Edition is similar to a PG film.
