By Rupert Holmes Directed by Mark Sutch Musical Direction by Jaque Culpepper Scenic Design by Anita J. Tripathi Duke Family Performance Hall Based on Charles Dickens’s unfinished novel of the same name, The Mystery of Edwin Drood is a hilarious, interactive whodunit mystery musical. In the small town of Chesterham, England, the charming Edwin Drood has been mysteriously murdered – by whom? His romantic rival, John Jasper? An infamous purveyor of opium, Princess Puffer? The mysterious Landless twins? Dickens passed away before he revealed the culprit, but Rupert Holmes’ award-winning musical allows the audience to choose which character is the murderer by putting it to a vote.
