The cast of Troupe Adore’s October 29 Murder Mystery get into Character




By Marni Walsh

The cast of Halloween Musical Murder Mystery Dinner Theatre Costume Party Nightmare presented by Troupe-Adore on October 29 at the Shelburne Curling Club: a musical evening of tribute music from famous artists, comedy, culinary delights and murder!

Local performers portraying tribute artists get tangled in a romantic web that ends in mystery and murder. Some iconic musical personalities emerge from the mysterious frolic as the tribute artists impersonate Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, Fred Astaire, Alice Cooper, Marilyn Manson, and Sonny and Cher.

Envisioned by Sohayla Smith and Josh Oatman, who also directs the action, the show emerges from the art of improvisation. Dinner includes cheese platter with sweet preserves, assorted breads and crackers, a squash curry soup, followed by an artisan salad with a main course of bacon wrapped chicken stuffed with goat cheese and basil served with salsa cruda pasta including cherry tomatoes, bocconcini, lemon zest, fresh basil, and olives tossed in pesto.

Dessert will be crème brulee drizzled with citrus reduction served with coffee or tea. Cash bar is available. The musical cast features (left to right front) Desmond Baxter as Fred Astaire, Darcey Baker as Marilyn Monroe, real life Elvis impersonator Dustin Bricker, (back) Justin Nixey as Marilyn Manson, Debbie Morris as Cher, Paul Welch as Sonny Bono, and Jason Riedel as Alice Cooper.

To add to the fun, the audience may come in costume if they wish - there will be a prize for the best costume. This is a one night only event with limited seating. The dinner and show takes place October 29 at 7.30 p.m. Tickets are $40 and can be purchased on line at www.troupe-adore.com. – click events.
