SUMMARY:MRT PRESENTS KEN LUDWIG’S “THE GAME’S AFOOT”
DESCRIPTION:McKinney Repertory Theatre (MRT) will begin their 24-25 season
  with a two-weekend run of Ken Ludwig's The Game's Afoot \, an uproarious
  "Sherlock Holmes" whodunit. The play runs from October 4-5 & 11-12\, 2024
  at the McKinney Performing Arts Center.   \nBreathtaking mystery and high
  hilarity in equal parts\, this play tells the story of Broadway star Will
 iam Gillette\, who has invited his fellow cast members to his Connecticut
  castle for a weekend of revelry. But when one of the guests is stabbed to
  death\, the festivities in this isolated house of tricks and mirrors quic
 kly turn dangerous. Then it’s up to Gillette himself\, who just happens to
  think he’s Sherlock Holmes\, to track down the killer before the next vic
 tim appears. \n \nAn interesting feature of the story is that Gillette col
 laborated with Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and portrayed his beloved Sherlock H
 olmes during his real-life career. Through all of his work as an actor and
  playwright\, he amassed a fortune\, and his actual home today is featured
  in a Connecticut state park that has become a popular visitor’s attractio
 n. \n The Game’s Afoot was written by Ken Ludwig and the play was the winn
 er of the 2012 Edgar® Award for Best Play from the Mystery Writers of Amer
 ica. The MRT production is being directed by Tatum Love and produced by Ke
 lly Baxter. \n  \n \nThe two-hour\, two-act show with a 15-minute intermis
 sion will serve up both danger and laughter in a glittery who-dun-it. You’
 ll be left guessing right up to the very end. \nTickets are $24.50 for adu
