Death by Design

Audiences will put on their detective gumshoes to investigate the mysterious happenings at Cookham Manor in “Death by Design” by Rob Urbinati, next up for ÃÛѨÊÓƵ Theatre. This hit mash–up combines the delicious wit of Noël Coward with the clever plotlines of an Agatha Christie mystery.
