The Upfront Theatre Presents "Murder at Mortlake Manor"

The Upfront Theatre Presents “Murder at Mortlake Manor”

01/23/2026 - 7:30 pm - 9:00 pm at The Upfront Theatre
203 Prospect St

The Upfront Theatre presents “Murder at Mortlake Manor” throughout the month of January.

From The Upfront Theatre’s website:
“Enter an extravagant party, hosted by a wealthy socialite. Things take a deadly turn when the host is murdered! The eccentric guests are all suspects. No one—neither the cast nor the killer—knows who committed the crime.

Guided by the sharp-witted butler, the audience becomes the world-famous detective. You are tasked with piecing together the CLUEs witnessing hilarious flashbacks, and deciding whodunit. With twists, turns, and absurd explanations, no two shows are ever the same. 

Who’s the culprit? Watch, and decide for yourself!”
