Murder By The Book - BCP Production

What happens when some of the world’s greatest writers get together?  Murder, that’s what!  

The Raven Society is holding its annual meeting to select the best mystery book of the year to win the coveted Smoking Gun Award.  Because of the prestige of the prize, the membership in this sacred club is secret, even amongst themselves.  Each member attends the three day meeting, cut off from the rest of the world at the Dickens House, disguised as a famous author.  This year, Edgar Allan Poe introduces a dashing upstart, William Shakespeare, as a new member to replace the recently departed Jules Verne.  Spouting poetry, Will instantly captures the hearts of Mary Shelley, Charlotte Bronte, and Louisa Mae Alcott.  But romance is interrupted when Poe reads a nasty bit of correspondence announcing that each member of the society will die.  Only mystery maven Agatha Christie takes the message seriously, but, alas, it’s too late.  Which of our famous authors is trying to kill the competition?
Will the others figure out who the murderer is before it's too late? 

Join Bedford Community Players as we dive in to this delightfully entertaining tale about the very human side of great writers.
