A THEATRE production company’s season finished with a bang after putting on its first murder mystery.

Tyldesley Little Theatre (TLT) hosted Murder at the Panto at its Lemon Street base in a production which included nine suspects with strong motives to kill the director, who was gunned down in front of the audience.

The show, which took place on July 1, gave audience members the chance to question the suspects.

This revealed sinister sides of the characters before the murderer was exposed at the end of the show.

Due to the success of the production, TLT is planning to put on more murder mysteries next season, which starts in September.
