Theatre Department Presents the Mystery of Edwin Drood
March 29 @ 8:00 pm – 11:00 pm
Knobloch Campus Center DFPH-Duke Family Performance Hall
Based on Charles Dickens’s unfinished novel of the same name, The Mystery of Edwin Drood is a hilarious, interactive whodunit mystery musical. In the small town of Chesterham, England, the charming Edwin Drood has been mysteriously murdered – by whom? His romantic rival, John Jasper? An infamous purveyor of opium, Princess Puffer? The mysterious Landless twins? Dickens passed away before he revealed the culprit, but Rupert Holmes’ award-winning musical allows the audience to choose which character is the murderer by putting it to a vote.
