Camp Theatre’s 'Secondary Cause of Death' @ Newquay's Lane Theatre 2024

About

Secondary Cause of Death

Following the success of Camp Theatre’s sold out 2023 tour of Peter Gordon’s Murdered To Death, Inspector Pratt is back in 2024 to create more mayhem in the sequel Secondary Cause of Death. The year is 1939 and storm clouds are gathering over Europe. Colonel Craddock is now the proud owner of Bagshot House, converted to a country hotel, but his idyll is shattered by the arrival of Inspector Pratt bearing grim news. But are the guests who they seem?

Who is the strange Polish Count? Is the ATS officer Henrietta really that dim? Why is Lady Isadora needing Pratt to keep an eye on her nooks and crannies? And how come the flamboyant actor Cardew Longfellow is the spitting image of the Colonel?

When Cynthia Maple, sister of local amateur celebrity sleuth Joan Maple, stages a Murder Mystery Evening it’s not long before Pratt’s visit turns into a chaotic shambles as the body count rises higher and higher!
