Murdered to Death by Peter Gordon
Genesian Theatre presents
Murdered to Death by Peter Gordon

21 Jan 2022 to 5 Mar 2022

The play introduces the inept and bungling Inspector Pratt, who battles against the odds and his own incompetence to solve the murder of the house's owner. Bunting the butler, an English Colonel with the prerequisite stiff upper lip, a shady French art dealer and his moll, bumbling local inspectors and a well-meaning, local sleuth who seems to attract murder - they're all here, and all caught up in the side-splitting antics which follow the mysterious death of the owner of a country manor house. It soon becomes clear that the murderer isn't finished yet; but will the murderer be unmasked before everyone else has met their doom, or will audiences die laughing first?

This prepared her to create large scale children’s choreography for concerts and events during her teaching career.  She returned to the theatre later in life as a Stage Manager for the Genesian Theatre including for the very technical “Our House” and the comedy “Figaro. She has been an Assistant Director and Production Manager for the Genesian Theatre’s “A Room with a View” 2019 and the musical “Ladies in Black” 2019. She directed “The Sure Thing” by William Ives (which she adapted for Australian audiences) in 2018.  She staged managed “Superhal!” (Shakespeare’s Henry plays reimagined) at NIDA for The Puzzle Collective. Her studies at NIDA in 2019 & 2020 included Directing Actors for the Stage. Most recently Elizabeth helped to create a script from a Conan Doyle short story as Dramaturg for “Sherlock Holmes and the Death at Thor Bridge” (GenesianTheatre 2020 / 2021) and directed "Salsa Dancing" for Sydney's  2021 Short 'n Sweet Festival. 
Elizabeth has directed  "Murdered to Death" currently showing at the GenesianTheatre - playing until 5 March 2022 - ishe hasn't stopped laughing since!
