MURDER AT MIDNIGHT
A Thriller by Torben Betts
Directed by Philip Franks

Following the smash-hit success of Murder in the Dark, Torben Betts returns with a night to die for…

It’s New Year’s Eve in rural Kent, and Jonny “The Cyclops” has decided to throw a party.  But amidst the drinking, music and fireworks exploding overhead, a twisted trail of destruction emerges. As midnight looms, tarot cards foretell doom, police lights flash in the distance and a killer is in the house.

Everyone’s hiding something—but who’s telling the truth?
From the mind of acclaimed writer Torben Betts and produced by the award-winning Original Theatre, who brought you the smash hit production of Birdsong, Murder in The Dark and Agatha Christie’s The Mirror Crack’dMurder at Midnight blends razor-sharp wit with chilling suspense and will keep you guessing until the final stroke of midnight.
