The unfinished final work of Charles Dickens offers a&nbsp;shadowy, intricate plot with a bonus: the audience votes on the ending!&nbsp;A brooding, sinister, and brilliant music teacher obsesses over the young Rosa Bud. Meanwhile, Rosa's fiance Edwin Drood disappears amidst a colourful cast of characters.<br /><br />Creator, Rupert Holmes, utilizes&nbsp;pantomime&nbsp;and&nbsp;Dickens&rsquo;&nbsp;novel, as well as his experiences with&nbsp;Victorian-style&nbsp;music hall&nbsp;performances to create the central premise of the show. &lsquo;The Mystery of Edwin Drood&rsquo; began as part of the New York Shakespeare Festival and then moved to Broadway and played for a total of 608 performances. It won five Tony Awards in 1986, including Best Musical. In 2012, revivals of the musical played in London's West End and at Studio 54, Broadway.<br /><br />Audience participation optional &bull; Some coarse language &bull; Suggestive scenes &bull; Not suitable for children</p>
