Death by Design

About the show

'Death by Design', by Rob Urbinati, is a comedy with murder!

What happens when you mix the brilliant wit of Noël Coward with the intricate plotting of Agatha Christie?

Set during a weekend in an English country manor in 1932, 'Death by Design' is a hilarious, delightful, and mysterious mash-up of two of the greatest English writers of all time. Playwright Edward Bennett, and his actress wife Sorel, flee London and head to Cookham after a disastrous opening night, much to the annoyance of their less than enthusiastic maid and chauffeur.

But various guests arrive unexpectedly - a conservative politician, a fiery socialist, a zany modern dancer and a nearsighted ingénue ? each with a long-held secret.
