About the event
Mesdames and Messieurs, may I take your tickets please?
Pinch Punch welcome you aboard Locomotive for Murder: The Improvised Whodunnit, a totally improvised, totally hilarious murder mystery where killing the cast and cracking the case is in your hands. Expect shaky alibis and silver-tongued sleuths along with thrills, spills, and good old-fashioned kills.
Four characters board a train, but not everyone will survive… Thankfully, a world-famous detective is onboard, ready to solve the case.
But who is the murderer? Only one person in the show knows — the murderer themselves! Can you help the detective solve the case?
Using audience stories and suggestions, watch Pinch Punch create a unique, one-of-a-kind, never-to-be-repeated whodunnit. If you love comedy or murder mysteries, then this is the show for you!
