Notes: This play has a unique format in that it
can be just a one-act play with a running time of
about 35-45 minutes or an audience
participation play and Clue Quest with a running
time of 90-120 minutes. There are two different
types of Characters: The play characters and
the clue characters. The Clue Quest and Clue
Characters are explained in detail with in the
script. However, the basic format is a thirty
minute play on a stage then the audience
members are sent out of the theatre to look for
clues where they interact with the clue
characters. Once they find the clues they try to
solve the mystery. They then return to the
theatre to watch the conclusion and the solution
to the mystery.
