IT'S going to be murder working out whodunnit in the latest production from the Court Theatre, Tring.

Murder On The Home Front, running on February 12/13 pits the wits of the audience – never a wise move - against those of the police in working out the solution to a particularly nasty war-time crime.

In August 1944, the Hopkins family think they only have the German V1 rockets to worry about. George is nervous, reliving some of the horrors of the Great War, while his wife Violet tries to keep the family together.

Their granddaughter Mildred does her bit for the war effort, working in the munitions factory, and while grandson Jimmy's mysterious health problems keep him out of the army, he isn't troubled by the shortages.

They invite Mildred's former teacher to lodge with them after she's bombed out and all take refuge in the cellar while the doodlebugs fly overhead.

Little do they realise that danger is closer to home and before long, one of them is dead.

The police investigate and soon everyone is under suspicion.

The audience can help work out who have motives, but are unlikely suspects, before making a final accusation as to who is the murderer.

Murder On The Home Front is produced by Court Theatre Ltd, a new charity staffed entirely by volunteers, who help run this fabulous community theatre.

All proceeds from Murder on the Home Front will be used to improve the facilities within the building. for the benefit of all those that use it.

Tickets, which include buffet supper and must be bought in advance (maximum of 8 per table), are available from the box office, 01442 823130 or www.courttheatre.co.uk
