🎭 Who Killed the Vet? – Coming to Holt on the 17th, 18th of April 2026!
Do you fancy yourself as the next Miss Marple, Columbo or Poirot?
If so, gather your friends and head to Holt Village Hall on Friday 17 April or Saturday 18 April to help solve a murder.
Rest assured, though – no real vets have been harmed in the making of this production, so the local residents can relax!
This quirky comedy murder mystery is set in the Crooked Stile Veterinary Practice in the village of Sandy Bottom, Sparrowdale, owned by celebrity vet Leo Cooperthwaite, presenter of the long-running television show Country Piles. Unfortunately for Leo, it seems he is not quite as popular as he thinks.
As the harassed television production team struggle to film another episode of the programme, chaos unfolds in the Treatment Room. A colourful collection of characters appear, including devoted cat owners, enthusiastic dog lovers and an irate local farmer. Each of them has their own grievance… but who actually murders Leo Cooperthwaite, and why?
That is the mystery for the audience to solve.
CALLING ALL DETECTIVES....HOLT NEEDS YOU 🫵
Guests will be seated at tables of eight and will have the chance to follow the clues as the drama unfolds. There will be plenty of time to discuss your theories while enjoying a light Ploughman's supper.
Following the success of our previous murder mystery evening, there will once again be prizes (and plenty of applause) for the teams who correctly identify the culprit. A cash bar will also be available throughout the evening for celebratory drinks – or perhaps consolation if your detective skills let you down.
Tickets are just £10, including supper, and will be available from Holt Superstore from the 23rd of March 2026.
Come along for an evening of laughter, intrigue, good food and great company. The only question is… will you be able to solve the mystery?
