Feuding theatre critics Moon and Birdboot, the first a fusty philanderer and the second a pompous and vindictive second stringer, are swept into the whodunit they are viewing. In the hilarious spoof of Agatha Christie-like melodramas that follows, Moon and Birdfoot become dangerously implicated in the lethal activities of an escaped madman causing a series of events that parallel the play they are watching.

THE REAL INSPECTOR HOUND opens at Brüka with a post-show opening night champagne reception and appetizers from the Wild River Grille on October 6, 2017. The show runs weekly Thursday through Sunday through October 28, 2017. Evening shows begin at 8:00 PM (Artist night is Wednesday October 25, 2017 all tickets on this night only are $10.) There is one Sunday matinee on October 15th at 2:00 PM followed by a talk back with the company and our audience. The doors open a half an hour before curtain time. The play is suggested for ages 8 and up.

Rave reviews greeted this long one act masterpiece of farce when it was recently revived in London.

"The Real Inspector Hound is an exceedingly clever lampoon, sharply in focus..." - The New York Times

"Witty and delicious parody of the fog bound whodunit." - Guardian

"A masterpiece.... Stoppard mines murder mystery conventions and strikes gold." - Independent on Sunday
