Choose your own Fringe – a Mysterious Caper at Murder Point

The audience is the star in this groundbreaking interactive rollercoaster drama – a rom-com-murder-mystery, which brings pick-a-path books from the 1980s and 1990s into the 21st Century - and onto the stage.

Using Beyond 2000 technology (as seen in election “worm debates”), the audience is in the driver’s seat and the popular vote decides. The wrong decision could end in disaster, death – or even worse!

As the show’s hero, Jimmy (the audience) must make his way to his rural-coastal hometown, Murder Point. But what will he face when he gets there? Smugglers? Hipsters? Unplanned children????

The unique electronic audience response system, using software developed for the show, will enable the audience to steer the action into one of about 250 possible versions of the plot. Each version is fully scripted.
