A MURDER mystery evening is being held at a community centre.

Shoestring Theatre Company is performing an interactive play at The Venue in Stanley.

The event is being staged on Friday, July 27, from 7.30pm, and is called Who Killed The Caretaker?

Bill Wilkinson, chairman of Stanley Community Association, which runs The Venue, who is also part of the theatre company, said: “Who would want the unscrupulous and greedy Jasper Ricketts, a school caretaker, dead?

“All the staff have good reason to want to get rid, motive and opportunity to carry out this dastardly deed.

“The audience is invited to put their detecting skills to the test as they try and unravel the mystery.”

Entry is £3 per person with prizes on the night.
