In the New England town of Old Darienwich, someone has been murdered. With your help, we solve the crime EVERY TIME!

ClueDunnit?! is an interactive, improvised murder mystery where YOU decide the story. Was it the MAYOR with the MARTINI GLASS at the BAR? Or the DOCTOR with the MOOSE HEAD at the WHALE FESTIVAL?

No script. Every performance is unique (and sometimes absurd), shaped entirely by the audience. A 90-minute event intertwined with an open bar and BYO food style seating. Charcuterie boxes will be available for purchase from Graze & Co., or you can bring your own food from home or your favorite Georgetown eatery.

1. Meet the characters
2. Help interrogate the suspects
3. Experience key scenes leading up to the murder
4. Learn about their motives
5. Identify the clues
6. Find the killer

A portion of the proceeds will support The Granite programming and initiatives.

The St. Mark’s Choir & Soloists offer a service of Evensong for Lent. Choral Evensong (sung Evening Prayer) is one of the most beautiful services of the Anglican/Episcopal tradition. Most of Evensong is sung by the choir, freeing the congregation to attend prayerfully to the “holiness of beauty.” The service will feature works for the penitential season of Lent by Thomas Morely, Robert J. Powell, Herbert Howells, Thomas Tallis, and Felix Mendelssohn.

Please join us for this beautiful, candle-lit service. A reception will follow.
This is a free event.

Two singer-songwriters host two additional singer-songwriters every second and fourth Tuesday of the month at Dunville’s LittlePub. We tell our stories in song and provide an encouraging environment for songwriters to ply their craft. Hosted by Erik Moses and Bill Dempsey
