Running May 2nd through May 18th at the Hope Covenant Church in Strathmore, Kyle reviews Strathmore Theatre Players production of Ken Ludwig's The Games Afoot with much thought about how it all came to be and how much he would have enjoyed seeing it a second time.

About the Show: Winner of the 2012 Edgar® Award for Best Playfrom The Mystery Writers of America. Breathtaking mystery and high hilarity in equal parts, this play tells the story of Broadway star William Gillette, who has invited his fellow cast-members to his Connecticut castle for a weekend of revelry. But when one of the guests is stabbed to death, the festivities in this isolated house of tricks and mirrors quickly turn dangerous. Then it’s up to Gillette himself, who just happens to think he’s Sherlock Holmes, to track down the killer before the next victim appears. The danger and laughter are non-stop in this glittering whodunit set during the Christmas holidays.
