The Mystery of Edwin Drood, winner of five Tony Awards, is based on Charles Dickens’ famously unfinished novel, set in the Music Hall Royale in Victorian England. This hilarious, interactive mystery musical tries to solve the murder of the young and charming Edwin Drood. Was it a romantic rival? The purveyor of opium and vice? The newly arrived twins from the east? The audience chooses the dastardly villain in this tuneful tale of intrigue.
