 And the Killer Is. . .

And the Killer Is. . .

Synopsis:
For the last ten years " Big Brother" has become a mainstay of British television and life, whether you think that is a good or bad thing only you can answer). But it will soon depart our screens for good. This is the starting premise for Dan Mitchell's new play " And the killer is". To avoid copyright and possibly legal issues he changed the show's title to " Spy House" and concentrated upon how the producer/host and stars would cope now their " cash cow" was over. With the theatre audience doubling up as the pre-show studio audience Dan Mitchell cleverly allowed local Mike Bubbins to warm up the near-capacity crowd with a hysterical set. We were then all plunged into the drama of the piece with the discovery of the murdered body of the last series winner, Clint. It was now who-dunnit time with Taylor Glenn ( as the Davina McCall type host) becoming chief interrogator of the suspects. After the interval the audience were now allowed to ask questions of the characters to uncover the culprit. This was the part of the play that I thought might cause the structure and pace to flounder. Instead thanks to the brilliance of the cast to improvise according to the (mainly) unexpected questions I actually enjoyed the second half more. After the clues and the questions had been completed the audience then completed a slip of paper stating who they thought the killer was. The murderer duly revealed themself , the winning guesser awarded a bottle of champagne while the remaining audience left rewarded in the knowledge that they had witnessed a highly enjoyable play.
