Denouement: An Improvised Mystery

An improvised whodunit staged at Symphony Hall in Birmingham, where the plot is built live by the performers rather than set in a script.

Denouement: An Improvised Mystery is an improvised show in which a whodunit is created live on stage, with the performers building the plot as the evening goes. The title refers to the final unravelling of a mystery, but because the story is not scripted, the solution is not fixed in advance and each performance takes its own course.

Because nothing is written beforehand, the cast responds to one another in the moment, and the tone and outcome can change from one evening to the next. The production suits anyone interested in detective storylines and in improvised theatre.

The show is staged at Symphony Hall, which hosts concerts and shows in Birmingham.
