Sat 27th: 1400-1800 – Murder Mystery Session

Being an actor in a Murder Mystery is an opportunity to hone your improv skills, keep to the story and character brief and create an atmosphere where the stakes are high and entertainment is key.

We usually have to deliver around food being served, a time when the energy can drop if people are not there and ready to go out and perform. We want real characters of an era, where motive and history have cast shadows over each of their lives.

Yet we also know, as human beings, that there must be a pressure release, with humour used as a dark instrument to ease the tension.

You will be given characters to look through in advance of the workshop, and will be put in groups to discuss how to reveal information, stage arguments and use the time to create that live/‘in the moment’ feeling, with anyone not in your group becoming audience members who will cross-examine you whilst you stay in character.

We will be joined by ITR Detective Luke Lamont for the session, which will be lots of fun and an opportunity to get to know ITR as a company and work with some great fellow actors.

To attend, sign up NOW! Space is very limited.

Attendance is free by kind organisation and support from The Eventure Collective. Robert Blackwood appears courtesy of Interrupt the Routine.
