The founder of a production company behind a unique Liverpool murder mystery show has said “there’s no better place” to promote diverse and unique theatre plays.
Murder At Cadberry Manor will feature interactive features such as unique QR codes which will enable the audience to vote for who they think the killer is at points during the show. The play will follow the story of a gala dinner at a country manor, during which a killer poisons guests. The characters are interestingly named after chocolates and sweets, such as Detective Hari Bo and Sir Toby LeRone.
The play is being made by 4AM Productions, who made their sell-out debut with psychological thriller The House Amongst The Willows at The Hope Street Theatre. Returning to the same location this May, theatre goers have been promised "quirky and eccentric characters and a laugh every minute, whilst people get poisoned and the plot thickens."

Sab Muthusamy, the founder of 4AM productions, has argued his plays are built on diversity and inclusion. The 15-strong cast includes actors from different ethnic backgrounds and some who have faced rejection, anxiety and conditions such as autism.
He said: “There’s no better place than Liverpool to start a production company like this. We’re very progressive and believe that people from all backgrounds and walks of life can bring something unique to the table.”
Lily Almond, an actor and singer starring in the show, said: “It’s been so refreshing to work with 4AM Productions and it’s been interesting to be part of a big diverse cast.
Director Phil Halfpenny said: “With it being such a big cast, it’s been challenging getting everyone together at the same time for rehearsals but it’s been so much fun working with different people. This play is going to be so entertaining and it’s a pleasure to be working with so many wonderful people, all with their own styles and personalities.”
Murder At Cadberry Manor will be shown at the Hope Street Theatre at 7.30pm on May 11, 12 and 13. Tickets are available here.
