IT WAS BRILLIANT

I really like the story and the performance was great. I really like the way the story makes sense when you finish it.

Not for 8 year olds

Pretty dark for kids! My daughter loves mysteries and detectives but we didn’t expect to hear excessive talk about murder and details about it. Be sure your kid is older if you get this for them. We only made it to chapter 3.
