Murder Mystery Touring

I play a comedic character in a murder mystery show. It’s a blast having regulary shows to work on my acting, timing and fine tune my performances. Our company does corporate shows, so we do both in town and out of town shows – much like a touring company.

One of the challenges doing an out of town show is the coordination and availability. Seven people of our cast has to be free that night, and they all need to arrange a drive up north.

This week’s venture takes us to Port Severn, Ontario. It’s about two hours north of Toronto, more rooted in the snow belt than Toronto is. The show is on February 1st, which will be a snowy cold day to go to a “cottage resort.” But it’s a getaway. A little escape holiday. We get to stay over because it’s so far out of town.

I love doing live comedy shows – it’s a gas working with the audience, playing a character and getting great reactions. I’m looking forward to the gig.
