The Critics speak!

“You’ll be swept away with Jessica Fletcher feels … it has the BEST HOST.” – Time Out London

“A cinematic, theatrical and hilarious experience… Before the night I had never seen an episode of Murder, She Wrote before, unlike some dedicated fans who had even dressed up. However, this really was an evening everyone could enjoy.” – Nottingham Post

“It didn’t take long for Benzie to have the audience in stitches and he had the whole crowd in the palm of his hand the entire evening.” – Bristol 24/7

“A complete triumph” – The Scotsman

As soon as I saw it was on at the [Edinburgh] Fringe I elbowed my way through the other BW reviewers, pushed a couple of them over… just so I could get to the front of the queue and see this show again. And it did not disappoint… I’d go again in a heartbeat.” – 5 stars ***** Broadway World
