About

A laugh-out-loud slapstick whodunnit featuring four actors, a dozen characters and a whole load of chaos.

When a priceless painting goes missing at a private auction, Detective Stuart Pidcock is called upon to uncover the mystery.

However, when he cannot solve it himself he is forced to enlist the help of an old nemesis.

Together, the pair must interrogate the many characterful suspects that reside at the manor, in order to catch the conniving culprit and solve the crime of the century! Fresh from selling out their run at The Ed Fringe, Camden Fringe, New Normal Festival and a 2022 Spring Tour.

Shoddy are back with their hit show "A Shoddy Detective".

Grab you tickets now for the slapstick comedy that's taking the country by storm.
