A Shoddy Detective and the Art of Deception

About

A laugh-out-loud slapstick whodunnit featuring four actors, a dozen characters and a whole load of chaos.

When a priceless painting goes missing at a private auction, Detective Stuart Pidcock is called upon to uncover the mystery.

However, when he cannot solve it himself he is forced to enlist the help of an old nemesis.

Together, the pair must interrogate the many characterful suspects that reside at the manor, in order to catch the conniving culprit and solve the crime of the century!
