UAHuntsville is proud to present "The Mystery of Edwin Drood
This wildly warm-hearted theatrical experience kicks off when the Music Hall Royale (a hilariously loony Victorian musical troupe) "puts on" its flamboyant rendition of an unfinished Dickens mystery. The giddy playfullness of this play-within-a-play draws the audience toward one of DROOD'S most talked-about features, which allows the audience to vote on the solution as prelude to the most unusual and hilarious finale!
Show held in the Chan Auditorium on campus
Tickets are $12 adults and $6 students. UAH students are free
