The comedy play, “Clue: On Stage” opens on the Wimberley Players stage Feb.18 and runs through March 13. From the iconic 1985 Paramount movie which was inspired by the classic Hasbro board game, “Clue” is a hilarious farce-meets-murder mystery featuring many of Wimberley Player’s well-loved actors. The tale begins at a remote mansion, where six mysterious guests assemble for an unusual dinner party with murder and blackmail on the menu. When their host turns up dead, they all become suspects. Led by the butler Wadsworth, Miss Scarlett, Professor Plum, Mrs. White, Mr. Green, Mrs. Peacock, and Colonel Mustard, all race to find the killer as the bodies stack up. “Clue” is the comedy whodunit that will leave both cult-fans and newcomers in stitches as they try to figure out… who did it, where, and with what.
