It's a Mystery

“I suppose you’re wondering why I’ve gathered you all here this evening.”

For those who have ever wondered ‘whodunnit’ and why …

Tim Benzie, the acclaimed creator and host of Solve-Along-A-Murder-She-Wrote presents his new gripping one-man show, a hilarious and fascinating deep dive into the enduring appeal of murder mysteries.

Detective Tim Benzie examines the clues that drew him to the genre as a child – from Scooby Doo to Encylopedia Brown, and from German mystery-puzzle books, to gobbling up the entire works of Agatha Christie as a teenager. Along the way he draws connections between obsessions with detective films the the TV series Murder, She Wrote.

Join Tim as he delves into why murder mysteries surge in popularity through times of societal strife – what is there about these stories that ignites the inner detective in us all? And ultimately, what is the mystery we’re all trying to solve?
