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 danger and laughter are non-stop in this glittering whodunit set during the Christmas holidays.

Performances will take place the weekends of November 7-16, 2025. Performances will be at 7:30 pm on November 7th, 8th and 14th, and at 2pm on the 9rd, 15th and 16th. The November 15th production of the show will additionally provide ASL interpretation of the performance.  All performances will occur at Cumston Hall, 796 Main St, Monmouth, ME 04259.

The Game's Afoot is being directed by Jonny Bolduc, and her production team includes Asst. Director Bryanne MacMillan, Stage Manager Pascal Ford, and Producer Tim MacLeod.
