Comedic murder mystery “CLUE” premiered on Jun. 9, 2026, as part of the Memorial Hermann Broadway at the Hobby Center 2025-2026 Season.
The hilarious murder mystery comedy originates from the famous Hasbro board game and is adapted from the fan-favorite film.
While the original screenplay is written by Jonathan Lynn, the live show was written by playwright Sandy Rustin. The script also includes additional material by Hunter Foster and Eric Price, with original music by Michael Holland.
The show follows six unique characters attending a dinner party at Boddy Manor.
When the host is murdered, the night takes a turn, leaving the rest of the guests to solve the mystery and find the killer amongst them.

The show is lead by talented actors including Sarah Mackenzie Baron as Mrs. White, Adam Brett as Wadsworth, Camille Capers as Miss Scarlet, Nate Curlott as Colonel Mustard, TJ Lamando as Mr. Green and many others.
After watching the show, delighted audience member Brittany Mkparu says “The show was hilarious, the cast was great at shifting the atmosphere and keeping the audience on the edge of their seats. The high tensions created by the subject matter were often met with a well placed joke. Wadsworth and Mr.Green were phenomenal at body comedy, their scenes were hilarious and relieved the tension from the darker scenes.”
The incredible set design, lighting and scene transitions are the heart of the show. Much like an actual mansion, the stage version of Boddy Manor has many secret doors leading to new rooms. Moreover, the set design also includes various backdrops and chandelier lights to create a new environment for the actors.
“The pivoting sets were a wonderful show of craftsmanship from the set designers. The level of detail was incredible, from the accent pieces to divide the spaces to the lighting to make it feel like the audience was moving with the cast. I was also impressed with the cast’s ability to make it feel like we had entered a separate room,” states Mkparu.
Don’t miss the comedy filled whodunit full of surprising twists and turns. Get tickets for “CLUE” at Houston’s Hobby Center, running now until Jun. 14, 2026.
