MCP presents "The Game's Afoot"

The Monmouth Community Players, alongside Marquis Season Sponsor Great Falls Federal Credit Union and Season Sponsors Winthrop Area Federal Credit Union and Readfield Insurance Agency, wish to announce the cast of their upcoming production of Ken Ludwig’s "The Game’s Afoot.” The play, under the direction of Jonny Bolduc, will run November 7-16, 2025 at historic Cumston Hall in Monmouth. Other production staff include Bryanne MacMillan as Assistant Director, Tim MacLeod as Producer, Pascal Ford as Stage Manager and Katy Albert as Costumer.

Breathtaking mystery and high hilarity in equal parts, this play tells the story of Broadway star William Gillette, who has invited his fellow cast-members to his Connecticut castle for a weekend of revelry. But when one of the guests is stabbed to death, the festivities in this isolated house of tricks and mirrors quickly turn dangerous. Then it’s up to Gillette himself, who just happens to think he’s Sherlock Holmes, to track down the killer before the next victim appears.

The cast of “The Game’s Afoot” includes: Charles Burden and Jacyln O'Hara of Auburn; Hannah Hanson of Lewiston; Ginger Smith of Winthrop; Josh Oakes of Richmond; Danny Gay and Birdie Gay of North Monmouth; and Jessica Cirello of Lewiston.

Tickets are $20 for adults and $17 for students and seniors. For groups of 10 or more, please contact the box office for group ticket pricing. Showtimes are 7:30 pm on November 7th, 8th and 14th, and 2pm on November 9th, 15th and 16th. On November 15th, the production of the show will additionally provide ASL interpretation of the performance. Thanks to support from the Friends of Cumston Hall, beer and wine will be available at the evening performances of "The Game’s Afoot”.
