Clue coming
to Bradley Oct. 7
Mrs. Peacock in the library with the candlestick? Colonel Mustard in the billiard room with the knife? A lot of us spent hours trying to solve murders with a board game called CLUE. You can relive these memories, or participate for the first time, when the Theatre of Northeastern Connecticut at the Bradley Playhouse presents Clue: On Stage.
The show opens on Oct. 7 and runs for three weekends. Performances are at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 7, 8, 14, 15, 21 and 22 and at 2 p.m. Oct. 9, 16 and 23. Tickets are $22 for adults and $18 for seniors, students, veterans and first responders.
Reservations may be made with a major credit card online at www.thebradleyplayhouse.org or by calling 860-928-7887. Tickets may be purchased at the theater box office, either before the performance, or at the door if available. Purchasing your tickets ahead of time is always a good idea.
The TNECT production of Clue: On Stage is directed by Jeremy Woloski. The suspects include Wadsworth the butler, played by Nicholas Magrey, who is assisted by Yvette the maid, portrayed by Laurie Neal. The madcap and possibly murderous guests include Rose Gage as Miss Scarlet, Christine Crugnola Petruniw appearing as Mrs. Peacock and Krissi Forgues as Mrs. White. The gentlemen are Neal Martel playing Colonel Mustard, Robert Ellis III as Professor Plum and Preston Arnold appearing as Mr. Green. The cast is completed by Alex Gardner, Maegan Kelley and Wladimir Petruniw.
Masks are encouraged for anyone who is unvaccinated or at high risk, but they are not required. This policy is subject to change, so check the Bradley website for any updates prior to attending.
It’s a dark and stormy night, and you’ve been invited to a very unusual dinner party. Each of the guests has an alias, the butler offers a variety of weapons, and the host is, well . . . dead. So whodunnit? Join the iconic oddballs known as Scarlet, Plum, White, Green, Peacock, and Mustard as they race to find the murderer in Boddy Manor before the body count stacks up. Based on the cult classic film and the popular board game, Clue is a madcap comedy that will keep you guessing until the final twist.
Clue: On Stage was written by Sandy Rustin, with additional material by Hunter Foster and Eric Price, and based on the screenplay by Jonathan Lynn from the 1985 film and the Hasbro board game CLUE. The film featured Martin Mull as Colonel Mustard, Madeline Kahn as Mrs. White, Christopher Lloyd as Professor Plum, Tim Curry as Wadsworth and Lesley Ann Warren as Miss Scarlet.
