Synopsis: | With all the ingredients of the conventional Whodunnit, this play is, in fact, a send-up of the genre. A Cluedo-like assembly, an amateur sleuth, everyone threatened with death and a Chief Inspector Haddock to boot. But aren't all the characters and events a little too pat? Isn't the fact that everyone is a suspect too good to be true? Well, of course. As one cliche after another of the typical stage thriller gets its comeuppance, a real puzzle is nevertheless presented. Although the plot twists, the answers are simple and will be easily assimilable by an audience that will be intrigued and amused to witness a mystery with a difference. | |||||

Synopsis: | The Hassles, newly in Spain, desperate to get away from the dust and noise generated by an anticipated building site, seize upon an advertisement to do a month's swap with the Muggs in the UK, unaware that the Devonshire retirement cottage is in the middle of an army firing range. Added to this, both couples have the intrusive neighbours Ted and Beryl (played by the same actors) to endure. The plan - never to meet the people they have conned - misfires when flight times are confused, with resultant mayhem. A laugh from the beginning to the unexpected end. | |||||
