The show tells the story of the upstanding, young Edwin Drood who mysteriously disappears and is presumably murdered. But who did it? There are so many names in the frame and the audience gets to decide!
Derived from two major inspirations: Charles Dickens’s final, and unfinished novel, The Mystery of Edwin Drood, and the British Pantomime and Music Hall traditions that reached the height of their popularity in the years following Dickens’ death.
