Murder Manor – Episode 1

A murder has taken place in the West of America. Ms. Cynthis Van Der Bolt has been brutally murdered in her home. Two detectives must work together to piece together the evidence and solve the case …

Murder Manor is a five-part drama, devised, written and performed by members of Activate Youth Theatre, with support and mentoring from Dave Lordan as part of READ ON.  The participants were mentored to create a concept for their piece, device and write a script, record the scenes, edit the recordings, contribute to the sound design and distribute the final product.
