Melbourne's award-winning improvised whodunnit returns with a brand-new season set within a moody church in Melbourne's CBD.Discover the beautiful St Peter Mariner Chapel at venue partner Mission to Seafarers Victoria as it becomes the backdrop to red herrings, tell-tale clues... and MURDER. The parish is at the very heart of life in every quaint 1950s English village, but with bodies piling up in the vestry, things are looking dire at Murder Village Church. Thankfully the local priest, clever-clogs Father Leicester Guppy, has a nose for clues – and he delivers denouements as sharp as his sermons.
Starring some of Australia's funniest and most accomplished improvisers, Murder in the Chapel takes the winning Murder Village formula and dials up the excitement with a special 90-minute show in a truly unique and immersive location. As is always the case at Murder Village, any of the parish's peculiar parishioners could be dispatched at any moment, and any of them could be the murderer. It’s your secret ballot votes that determine who lives, who dies and who will be unmasked as the culprit.
Don't miss the chance to see Agatha Christie improvised in a real church. Whether you attend one service or them all, no two chapters of this critically acclaimed show are the same.
