Clue, The Musical book by Peter DePietro, Music by Galen Blum, Wayne Barker, and Vinnie Martucci and Lyrics by Tom Chiodo. Directed by Ryan Murray and Assistant Director Jon Brooks.

Play synopsis: Based on the classic board game, Clue, The Musical is a murder mystery that invites the audience to help solve the mystery of who killed Mr. Boddy, in what room, and with what weapon. Clue is a family-friendly delight from start to finish, a lovely and light 90 minutes of silliness.

Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at 7:30pm, and Sunday at 2:00pm!

“Would the gods had made me as I seem to be, or that I may safely be what I seem not!”

The gods demand a sacrifice. To avoid destruction, a village must surrender its most beautiful virgin to the god Neptune. The shepherd Tityrus, fearing for his daughter Galatea’s life, disguises her as a boy and sends her into the woods. But Tityrus isn’t the only villager to form this plan to hide his daughter from the gods: Melibeus sends his daughter Phillida to the woods as well, dressed as a boy.

In men’s clothing, Galatea and Phillida meet — and fall in love.

Dating from the 16th century, John Lyly’s Galatea brings us a striking tale where true love, in the face of a society’s constraints on gender and marriage, conquers all.

AMP Theatre Company is a volunteer-based community theatre producing Galatea in partnership with The Acting Ensemble.
