It is 1950 and Vera Brady travels to a mysterious tropical island where she has to contend with a baffling locked-room murder, a werewolf and, worst of all, her stupid ex-husband. She will need to keep her wit dry and her martinis drier if she is going to solve this puzzle.

Four suspects – the prim secretary, the tough bodyguard, the elderly nanny, and the drunken groundskeeper. One of them must be the murderer. And possibly a werewolf. Join us for a good old-fashioned, comedy murder mystery. Can you spot the killer?

“A sublimely silly and frenetically farcical comedy…” – Peter Green, The Melbourne Observer

“… a surreal journey that builds in ludicrousness. The script is witty and fresh, keeping the audience guessing and trying to understand the absurdities that take place – only to be surprised.” – Lucinda Naughton, Theatre Travels
