Our extremely popular Murder Mystery Evenings are arranged at several venues throughout the year. see programme of events page for Shrewsbury Summer Season progressive dinner on September 2nd

The fee for advertised events depends on the venue; meal and number of actors. We use original plots for each venue, drawing on the rich local history and folklore.

Solve the mystery from the clues given, with prizes for the best solutions, but watch out for the red herrings!

Actors are drawn from people attending creative writing and drama workshops held at Thresholds Centre.

Anyone interested in joining the informal group of 'Thresholds Players' should contact Thresholds Centre.

We can also offer events which are specially written for the occasion:

• designed for your group with members of the group taking the key roles but under our direction
• a progressive dinner using the landscape and history of local hostelries as inspiration for the plot
• provide amateur actors to integrate with the group with the plot unravelling during a three course meal.

Please note that we only accept two bookings pre Christmas. This is because each plot is individually written. We need at least eight weeks prior to the event to plan and write the plot at this busy time of year
