About the show
Join former forensics lecturer and police recruit trainer Jennifer Rees to explore the world’s most shocking and hard-to-believe crimes. This fascinating evening includes the following cases:
• The serial killer who gained work in law enforcement whilst on the run – and was then tasked with hunting himself!
• The researcher whose career began after an encounter in a lift with a serial killer – who had just killed his latest victims, and was carrying a bag believed to be holding their decapitated heads.
• One woman’s plan to get a prolific serial killer released from prison by committing a copycat murder of her own… and her connection to yet another serial killer!
• The hunt for a phantom female serial killer whose DNA was found at over 40 crime scenes spanning 18 years… who did not exist.
• Plus learn how the police could have DNA, fingerprints or an eyewitness tying you to a crime you did not commit!
• And much more!
Featuring
Strange But True Crime with Jennifer Rees
Join us for a stranger than fiction night of true crime with ex-forensics lecturer Jennifer Rees who explores the world's most shocking and unbelievable cases. Jennifer's previous theatre tour, The Psychology of Serial Killers, was a huge hit with audiences, selling out across the UK and Ireland to rave reviews.
In this new show, Jennifer explores stories such as the serial killer who gained work in law enforcement whilst on the run - and ended up hunting himself; the female, balloon-carrying killer clown; serial killers on game shows - how their appearances led to their identification, and many more stories.
A fascinating look at the strangest, but true crime stories, perfect for fans of true crime documentaries and podcasts.
