Upcoming
The Murder Mystery at the Rochester Opera House
Opens: Friday, January 23 – March 14
Location: The Rochester Opera House, 31 Wakefield Street, Rochester, NH 03867
Description: It’s opening night at Strafford County’s newest and largest family amusement park. Tension runs deep as city officials and design professionals wrangle for control of the park. Fortunately, Dixon DaCooter and his gang of Lilac City Angels ride in from Farmington to save the day. Unfortunately, someone dies, and you are left to solve the mystery. Join us for this irreverent, disrespectful, politically incorrect, and insulting piece of original theatre. Please go elsewhere if you are easily offended.
