Don’t miss out on the MTHS Fall Play - CLUE!
Based on the iconic 1985 Paramount movie which was inspired by the classic Hasbro board game, CLUE is a hilarious farce-meets-murder mystery. The tale begins at a remote mansion, where six mysterious guests assemble for an unusual dinner party where murder and blackmail are on the menu. When their host turns up dead, they all become suspects. Led by Wadsworth, the butler, Miss Scarlett, Professor Plum, Mrs. White, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock and Colonel Mustard race to find the killer as the body count stacks up. Clue is the comedy whodunit that will leave both cult-fans and newcomers in stitches as they try to figure out … WHO did it, WHERE, and with WHAT!
CLUE will be performed at the Kenneth H. Maurer Performing Arts Center from September 15-17, 2023, with performances starting at 7 PM on the 15-16, and 2 PM on 17th. Tickets are on sale now and will be available through the online MTHS Box Office: https://app.arts-people.com/index.php?ticketing=mths
Tickets are $8 for adults, $5 for senior citizens 65 & older, $5 for students 8th grade & younger, and all MTHS Students with a school ID are free.
For questions about tickets or the box office, please contact (309) 367-4151, ext. 574 or kherrick@mths.us
