Each year, actors and actresses, directors, scriptwriters and producers wait eagerly for their Silver Screen nominations and subsequent invitation to the Silver Screen Awards Festival. This year has been no exception.

With the ceremony about to take place, the nominees gather around candlelit tables, each one hoping for their big moment on the stage as the winners are announced.

Finally the compere takes to the stage and provides a light hearted opening number. Tensions are high. Who will win the awards? Who will rise to fame…

First up are the nominations for Best Director. However – it looks like nothing is going to “go all right on the night”. Award Nominee Steven Speilsman is dead!

The press is having a field day and there is no doubt in their mind that his death is the result of foul play – murder to be exact!

The only question is: which one of tonight’s Award nominees actually committed the crime?

This murder mystery is written to include 5 award presentations for your guests and is a great choice for a staff reward night.

The Cast:

• Detective Inspector Beverly Hills – The police officer sent to solve the crime
  Efficient in her own peculiar way, Beverly Hills has an unusual method of solving crimes – she involves everyone! (This part can be played by the person who plays Tom Spanks and the character name changed to "Bobby Wood" if preferred.)



• Mike Rafone – Compere
  Tall, dark and handsome, Mike enjoys the limelight and likes play to the cameras. He is a chatty conversationalist but not a flirt. He has eyes only for one woman, namely Kate Windswept.



• Tom Spanks – Director
  A womaniser and egotistical, Tom Spanks likes to throw his weight around and doesn’t take “no” for an answer. He likes to order people around and is very aware of his V.I.P. status and likes others to know too.



• Goldie Pawn – Actress
  Blonde, short and narcissistic, Goldie is only interested in herself and in her fame. She flirts with any men she thinks will give her a role in a movie and likes to get her face in front of the camera as often as possible.



• Uma Turnon – Actress
  Tall, beautiful and elegant, Uma is a natural star with an excellent figure.



• Kate Windswept – Compere's glamorous assistant.
  Beautiful, glamorous and poised, Kate is a natural on stage if a little naïve off it.



• Meg Tryin – Runner
  Used to working behind the scenes, Meg is uncomfortable, but delightful in her fancy frock. Meg enjoys her work and is very sociable and chatty. She has been tasked with the job of making sure all the directors are catered for and has been keeping busy running ensuring the evening runs smoothly.

Never run a large group mystery before? Then don't panic!

Hosting a Large Group Murder Mystery is time consuming, but with ample preparation and a good cast it is really quite simple and great fun!

In large group games it is impossible to give everyone a part, instead the mystery involves “cast members” who are fully in the know and act out the mystery, and the guests act as detectives trying to solve the murder.

Large group games come in several different formats, clue based, cast based, multi-room, single room, or a mixture of them all.

This particular game requires 6-7 cast (who are fully in the know), use of 1 large room with stage area, and some prop clues.

This mystery requires advance preparation, the more notice you have, and the more preparation and effort you put in to running the mystery, the better it will run for your guests.

One murder occurs before the guests arrive and one during the event.

Your guests play the role of detectives. You can have any number of detectives for this mystery, your only limit is the size of your room, and the time you have available.
