In
the show 'Murder at the Savoy or Pulley of the Yard' Noel Katz has
produced a Gilbert and Sullivanesque operetta.
Back
stage at London’s Savoy theatre during preparations for a G.
& S. show, a single gunshot is herd. The companies leading
baritone comedian Larry Dapple has been shot dead!
Send
for Pulley (Alister Mill) of the yard, he will pull it off if
anyone can. Who is the murderer? Was it Polly (Alimay Wilson)
Larry's wife, Whittleby (Guy Routledge) Polly’s lover, surely it
wasn’t Maud (Lucinda Forth) the Theatre manager she wouldn’t
do anything to jeopardise her beloved company, what of Percy
(Andrew Edmonstone) Maud's long suffering husband and Larry's
understudy, and finally Jessie (Karen Richmond) who discovered the
grizzly remains.
Who
done it? Edinburgh University Savoy Opera Group.
