Murder, She Didn’t Write Announces Return to the West End Following Sold-Out Debut

Critically Acclaimed Improvised Whodunnit Adds Three New Dates at the Duchess Theatre

After a sell-out debut earlier this year, the improvised comedy Murder, She Didn’t Write will return to the Duchess Theatre in London’s West End for three additional performances in 2025. Created and performed by renowned improv company Degrees of Error, the show will play on Monday 21 July, Monday 29 September, and Monday 24 November.

The show has been a perennial hit at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and has toured extensively across the UK. These new West End dates follow glowing reviews and audience demand from its first run in London.

A Murder Mystery Written Live—By the Audience

Murder, She Didn’t Write is an entirely improvised Agatha Christie-inspired murder mystery, created in real time from audience suggestions. Each night, the audience becomes the author, deciding who the victim and murderer are, while the cast weaves a hilarious and unpredictable whodunnit filled with twists, tropes and over-the-top characters.

Scenarios in previous shows have included poisonings at synchronised swimming galas and murders at Love Island-style recouplings—no two performances are ever the same. With sharp wit and improv mastery, the cast creates a fresh narrative every night, resulting in a truly unique theatrical experience.
