Wilson Theater Company Presents "Clue On Stage"

On a dark and stormy night, six unique guests, plus a butler and a maid, assemble for a dinner party at the home of Mr. Boddy. When their host turns up dead, it is clear that no one is safe! Soon the guests are racing to find the killer and keep the body count from stacking up. Based on the popular board game and adapted from the cult classic film, Clue is the comedy whodunit that will keep you guessing (and laughing) to the very end.
The show will be performed at 7:30 pm, on October 24, 25, and 26, in the Wilson High School Auditorium. Tickets can be purchased
