Murder for Two is back by popular demand for a return season

If you missed Hayes Theatre’s hilarious, critically acclaimed Murder for Two earlier this year, this is your chance! The sold out hit that Sydney Scoop described as “the funniest show I can remember seeing on stage… ever”, returns in a brand-new Christmas Edition, guaranteed to get you merry. And, due to overwhelming demand, Hayes Theatre is excited to be extending the season until Friday December 22!  

After a sellout season earlier this year, Murder for Two is back by popular demand for a return season – in a special Christmas edition! The hilarious and outrageous blend of music, mayhem, and murder gets a festive twist, as two incredible, multi-talented performers once again play 13 roles – not to mention the piano – in a rip-roaring parody of classic murder mysteries and your favourite Christmas stories.

The multi-talented Maverick Newman returns as The Suspects, with musical theatre star Kala Gare joining the cast as Marcus, exclusively for the Christmas season.

Officer Marcus Moscowicz is a small-town policeman with dreams of making it to detective. One fateful Christmas Eve, shots ring out at the surprise Christmas-birthday party of Great American Novelist Arthur Whitney (‘cause he was born on Christmas), and the writer is killed…fatally. With the local detective caught up doing last-minute gift shopping, Marcus jumps at the chance to prove his sleuthing skills—with the help of his silent partner, Lou. Did Dahlia Whitney, Arthur’s scene-stealing wife, poison the eggnog? Or was it the celebrated star of The Nutcracker, Barette Lewis? Whodunit?? You’ll have to come along and find out!


Anyone who saw this show earlier in the year will testify that this is about as much fun as you can have at the theatre. With genuine belly laughs, unexpected plot twists, incredible music, and phenomenal talent Murder for Two: Christmas Edition is the perfect night to launch you into the festive season.

Hitting the Hayes stage from December 1, the hilarious production of Murder for Two: Christmas Edition is the perfect event for a work Christmas party, a friendly Christmas catch up, or even just an excuse to gather all your friends who love a good old belly laugh.
