Mandate for Murder
Mandate for Murder
Politics can be murder!
It's election night and all the friends and supporters of mayoral candidate Matthew Kensington are throwing him a surprise birthday/campaign party. But there's one surprise no one suspects. An aide is found stabbed in
the back with the birthday cake knife! All clues point to the loyal supporters. Was it the wise-cracking Estelle, with her cutting remarks and shady past? Or maybe Macauley, the editor of the
local newspaper, has uncovered some dirt he thinks should be hidden. Cues and suspects
abound in this frenetic political satire, leaving the audience wondering who they can
trust. It's great fun for all, with campaigners canvassing the audience who they'll vote for. Not
only can the audience question the suspects, but they even get to vote for the candidate of their
choice and change the ending for each performance!
This dessert theatre show will run Saturday, November 16 at 7:30 pm and Sunday, November 17 at 2:00 pm. For ticket information, visit www.lendmeatheater.org or www.hatboxnh.com .
