MURDER AT THE GATES
Murder At The Gates is Clue meets Clueless, a black-comic murder mystery from a Gen-Z, gated-community America. It’s a dark and stormy night. Cameron’s birthday. To her horror, her rugged, entitled Dad is throwing her a party to help her get over the worst year ever. The sudden death of her mother and a gruesome break-up from her soul-mate, the poet-rebel Ethan. And so, the stage is set. A Murder Mystery Party!
All of Cam’s supposed friends arrive in costume. It’s all going splendidly, until the party “murder” occurs. And somehow, it’s real. Someone’s dead. And now, the security system locks down. Are they locked in with some maniac? Or is the killer one of them? Knives out, one by one, all the guests start to go down. At least, the night has a theme: It’s Your Party, and You’ll Die if They Want You.
Murder At The Gates features a stellar cast of exemplary talents who have earned critical adoration on Broadway and/or in the West End. It includes Milo Manheim (Disney’s “Zombies” series); Isa Briones (“The Pitt”); Joy Woods (a Tony and Grammy nominee for Gypsy); Helen J Shen (Maybe Happy Ending, The Devil Wears Prada 2); Mason Alexander Park (Much Ado About Nothing, Cabaret); Casey Likes (Heathers The Musical; Marty McFly in the original Broadway cast of Back To The Future: The Musical); and the vastly experienced Ramin Karimloo (Love Never Dies, Pirates!, Les Misérables).
An early version of Murder At The Gates previously played at the New York University's Tisch School of the Arts in 2013 before two rehearsed readings at The Other Palace, London, in 2019 and more recently, a workshop with Madison Wells Media in NYC in 2024.
