Clue - 2022 - 7/10

 
Theatrical production from Paper Mill Playhouse.
Derived from the enduring board game, loosely based on the 1985 film, this is a breathless farce.
Characters arrive at Boddy Manor, innuendos pile up, and do bizarre treacheries.
Set in 1950’s McCarthy witch-hunt America, where no one is above suspicion.
Extremely funny play.
Camerawork is serviceable, audio mostly OK.
Lengthy introduction is illuminating.
Theatre junkies, dinner is served!  Best advised to wolf down the hors d'oeuvres.
