Monmouth Community Players are putting on a production of Ken Ludwig’s “The Game’s Afoot” Nov. 7-9 and 14-16. The play, under the direction of Jonny Bolduc, will be staged at historic Cumston Hall in Monmouth. Other production staff include Bryanne MacMillan as assistant director, Tim MacLeod as producer, Pascal Ford as stage manager and Katy Albert as costumer.

Breathtaking mystery and high hilarity in equal parts, this play tells the story of Broadway star William 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 quickly 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 victim appears.

The cast of “The Game’s Afoot” includes: Charles Burden and Jacyln O’Hara, of Auburn; Hannah Hanson and Jessica Cirello, of Lewiston; Ginger Smith, of Winthrop; Josh Oakes, of Richmond; and Danny Gay and Birdie Gay, of North Monmouth.

Tickets are $20 for adults and $17 for students and seniors. For groups of 10 or more, contact the box office for group ticket pricing. Showtimes are 7:30 p.m. on Nov. 7, 8 and 14, and 2 p.m. on Nov. 9, 15 and 16. The Nov. 15 show will include ASL interpretation. Thanks to support from the Friends of Cumston Hall, beer and wine will be available at the evening performances.
