The Real Inspector Hound - Michigan Tech Theatre

MICHIGAN TECH THEATRE SERIES EVENT

Feuding theatre critics Moon and Birdboot are swept into the whodunit they are viewing in this hilarious spoof of Agatha Christie-esque melodramas, filled with classically Stoppardian musings on fate and free will. In the wild proceedings that follow, the body under the sofa proves to be the missing first-string critic. As mists rise about isolated Muldoon Manor, Moon and Birdboot become dangerously implicated in the lethal activities of an escaped madman.

About the Presenter

Michigan Tech Theatre creates live entertainment events for the Keweenaw, sharing the creative and scholarly work of students and faculty from the Department of Visual and Performing Arts. Performances range from traditional stage plays and musicals–performed in the McArdle Theatre or on the Rozsa stage–to haunted houses, interactive museum displays, and fashion shows.

Part of the annual Rozsa Season, the Michigan Tech Art, Music, and Theatre Series are presented by the Visual and Performing Arts Department. Through these series, students from across campus, community members, and faculty create art that connects us to the world. With majors in audio production and technology, sound design, theatre and entertainment technology, and nine minors, the department fosters creativity, self-motivation, and the development of practical and artistic skills. Everyone is welcome, and there's something for everyone.
