When this zany spoof of British mysteries opened in Sydney, Australia, reviewers spouted phrases like "a great vehicle for three ladies," "a plethora of hilarious situations," and "this is a romp!"

"Really a minor gem ... witty and sophisticated." - Newcastle Morning Herald

"Murder has never been this funny. A spoof of all crime thrillers ... it is good clean mirth all the way. The quick, smart, extremely well timed dialogue of Jack Sharkey comes through loud and clear [with] never a dull moment." - Times

"There are secret chambers, secret panels and trap lids galore. They're all operated by the most ridiculous contrivances and gloriously mucked up.... A high, mad melodrama." - Frank Harris

"Delightful ... constant humor.... A good mixture of Agatha Christie, Monty Python, and Abbot and Costello!" - Canon, Memphis.

FEE: $75 per performance.
