Summary

MURDER! is the sixth play in the hugely popular Little Grimley series, which follows the antic of a hapless Amateur Dramatic Society desperate for audiences.

Anxious to cash in on the public's appetite for detective dramas, the Chairman Gordon writes a whodunnit. But in a bizarre twist he then finds himself embroiled in a real-life murder mystery that threatens to put him behid bars. The quarrelsome quartet have been in some sticky situations over the years. But can they possibly get away with murder?

Featuring the same characters as Last Tango in Little Grimley, Last Panto in Little Grimley, The Fat Lady Sings in Little Grimley, Little Grimley Performs Sex Factor on Ice and Lockdown in Little Grimley. This play introduces a new surprise character towards the end. Sam (the Detective) can be played equally well as a male or female.
