After sell-out runs at the 2024 and 2025 Adelaide Fringe Festivals, Murder Village returns with more improvised mysteries – and a new detective!
Immerse yourself in the cozy world of a 1950s Agatha Christie novel as Australia's funniest improvisers craft eccentric characters and perplexing mysteries from your suggestions. Any of the village’s suspicious denizens could be dispatched at any moment, and any of them could be the murderer. It’s your secret ballot votes that determine who lives, who dies and who will be unmasked as the culprit.
In Murder Village, the local police inspector may be incompetent but there’s a crafty amateur sleuth on hand to sort the red herrings from the tell-tale clues. See if you can solve the crime first… whether you see one show or all of them, no two chapters of this critically acclaimed show are the same!
