Celebrating their 10th year at the Fringe! A classic murder mystery is created on the spot from audience suggestions in this ingenious and hilarious show from Fringe favourites, Degrees of Error. Lady Violet exploded on fireworks night? Madam Gold slain on the catwalk during fashion week? You decide, but will you guess whodunnit? 'Outstanding performances delivered by a seriously talented cast!' ***** (ThreeWeeks). 'Absolutely fantastic... incredibly clever... laugh-out-loud funny... a truly entertaining and hilarious take on the murder mystery and absolutely not one to miss' ***** (VoiceMag.uk). 'Hilarious... the show is a riot' (Daily Mail).

Interview with Lizzy Skrzypiec, artistic director of Degrees of Error and director of Murder, She Didn't Write

"I think it's impossible to have so many talented people in the same room having a good time and not have something great come from it. Keep it silly. Make it a safe space to fail and laugh off the stuff that doesn't work."
