The 2023/2024 Broadway in Orlando season is in full swing at Dr Phillips Center and up next on the stage to thrill Central Florida audiences is CLUE a national tour production of the mystery-comedy play launched in 2024. Clue is based on the 1985 American comedy mystery film based on the board game of the same name. Join the classic all star ensemble cast for a “fun” night in 1954 at Boddy Manor. Colonel Mustard, Mrs. White, Mrs. Peacock, Mr. Green, Professor Plum, and Miss Scarlet will see you the theater!
About Clue
A mansion. A murder. A mystery.
Murder and blackmail are on the menu when six mysterious guests assemble at Boddy Manor for a night they’ll never forget! Was it Mrs. Peacock in the study with the knife? Or was it Colonel Mustard in the library with the wrench? Based on the fan-favorite 1985 Paramount Pictures movie and inspired by the classic Hasbro board game, Clue is the ultimate whodunit that will leave you dying of laughter and keep you guessing until the final twist.

Did you know?
The screenplay for the film was adapted for stage performances in 2017 by the original screenwriter Jonathan Lynn. The stage production of Clue premiered in 2017 at Bucks County Playhouse, adapted by Hunter Foster with additional material by Eric Price. It was directed by Foster and starred Sally Struthers and Erin Dilly. A revised adaptation by Sandy Rustin, incorporating material from Foster and Price, was first performed in 2020. Rustin’s adaptation was described as “a welcome throwback to an era of physical comedy”. The stage adaptations have been performed widely and now are on a national tour.
