Lord Arthur Savile, engaged to the charming Sybil Merton, faces a bizarre prophecy from her palm-reading pet 'chiromantist,' Podgers. His destiny? Committing a murder! In a quest for a blissful married life, Lord Arthur takes on the bizarre duty of committing the murder before the wedding bells ring.

All while striving to keep his fiancée and her mother delighted. Join us for a night of laughter, love, and lunacy.
