A Shoddy Detective and the Art of Deception

Don''t be ridiculous Dusty, this isn''t one of your Shoddy Detective Plays... A laugh-out-loud slapstick whodunnit featuring four actors, a dozen characters and a whole load of chaos. When a priceless painting vanishes during a private auction, Detective Stuart Pidcock is brought in to unravel the mystery. But when he finds himself stumped, he must turn to an old adversary for help. The unlikely duo must question the colourful array of suspects living at the manor, all while trying to track down the cunning thief and solve the crime of the century. This edition of A Shoddy Detective and the Art of Deception was published to coincide with the UK Tour and Edinburgh Fringe Festival run in Spring/Summer 2025.
