CINCINNATI, OH – January 31, 2018 —Take part in the game and guess who did it in THE GAME’S AFOOT by Ken Ludwig at Sunset Players in Price Hill’s Arts Center at Dunham.

Set in December 1936, THE GAME’S AFOOT centers on Broadway star William Gillette, who is admired for his Sherlock Holmes portrayal and hosts a weekend party for his fellow cast members at his Connecticut castle. When one of the guests is stabbed to death, the festivities in this house of tricks and mirrors quickly turn dangerous. It’s up to Gillette, who assumes the role of Holmes, to track down the killer.
