Theatre--Performance (Musical Theatre)

Clue the Musical... directed by Walter Duncan McBride   

Music by Galen Blum, Wayne Barker, Vinnie Martucci
Lyrics by Tom Chiodo
Book by Peter De Pietro


    Clue the Musical brings the internationally popular board game to life on stage. This is an interactive musical starting with three audience members selecting one card each from three oversized decks and placing it in an envelope marked "Confidential." The envelope is then left untouched until the end of the production. The chosen cards will determine the ending of the show, which has 216 possible conclusions. These card selections also determine some interchangeable dialogue between certain characters which are delivered as the play unfolds.  The audience is given clues as the show progresses that they will use to deduce the outcome on a provided game form.  So basically, not only do the audience draw cards to decide the secret outcome, they play the game while the Suspects act on stage.  Those who guess correct combination of Suspect, Room, and Murder Weapon will receive a prize for their efforts...
