Ellie Leach to play Miss Scarlett in UK tour of CLUEDO 2 - THE NEXT CHAPTER

It has been announced that Coronation Street star and Strictly Come Dancing winner Ellie Leach will star as Miss Scarlett in the world premiere UK tour of Cluedo 2 - The Next Chapter, which opens at Richmond Theatre on 29 February.

Leach will star alongside leading West End actor and TV favourite Jason Durr as Colonel Mustard, with Jack Bennett as Wadsworth, Hannah Boyce as Mrs Peacock, Dawn Buckland as Mrs White, Liam Horrigan as Mr Black, Edward Howells as Professor Plum, Tiwai Muza as PC Silver, and Gabriel Paul as Reverend Green, with Kara Alberts-Turner, Audrey Anderson and Henry Lawes. Helen Flanagan, who was previously announced as Miss Scarlett, has been advised to withdraw for medical reasons.

Following the huge success of the critically acclaimed original play, Cluedo is back on stage with a brand new comedy mystery, written by BAFTA Award winning writers Laurence Marks and Maurice Gran, and directed by Mark Bell.

As the bodies pile up, our colourful characters - The Honourable Mrs Emerald Peacock, Colonel Eugene Mustard, ‘Professor’ Alex Plum, Miss Annabel Scarlett, ‘The Reverend’ Hal Green and the housekeeper Mrs White - move from room to room trying to escape the murderer and survive the night. Cluedo 2 will keep audiences guessing right up to the final moments, and budding detectives of all ages, from 8 to 80 and beyond, can watch for the clues and unravel the secrets, as they try to work out whodunnit… with what… and where!
