About this Event

Columbo Solves a Shock Rock M**der

The rumpled trench coat, the ever-present cigar, and that unforgettable phrase: “Just one more thing…” — Detective Columbo has arrived in Delavan, and he’s about to unravel one of the strangest cases yet.

WHO WAS MURDERED?
Graham Delsener, a rock concert promoter with more than 30 years in the business, was finally ready to hang up his clipboard and retire to a Caribbean island. But first, he planned to stage one last show — a “Has Beens Reunion Tour” at the Moondog Arena, featuring obscure acts from the 60s, 70s, and early 80s. Known for cutting corners, underpaying talent, and making sure he pocketed the lion’s share of every deal, Delsener wasn’t exactly beloved in the industry.

On November 15th, at the rehearsal for his big finale, musicians and crew arrived to find Delsener lying dead on the stage. The only clue? Strange burn marks on his clenched right hand.

WHAT’S COLUMBO DOING HERE?
As fate would have it, Columbo was vacationing at Lake Lawn Resort with Mrs. Columbo when the Delavan police called him in for help. The scene was puzzling, the evidence scarce, and the suspects plenty. Columbo gathered everyone present at the rehearsal into tonight’s room — ready to use his humble, disarming style to tease out the truth.

Was it revenge, sabotage, or something more shocking? One thing’s for sure: Columbo will solve this most bizarre M**der mystery.
