The Mystery of Edwin Drood

I saw OTL's performance of The Mystery of Edwin Drood and it was superb! I absolutely loved that the show was interactive, and several Humanities scholars (including some of my old residents) were in the show! I loved the sets and thought they were very 1920s-esque and I really appreciated the attention to detail. I still can't believe that all of OTL's performances are all student run--its truly impressive what an amazing show they could put on simply running it themselves! I really loved that the musical was based off a novel by Charles Dickens that he did not complete, and thought the show was unique and innovative! I will continue to support OTL events in the future!

    I also saw The Mystery of Edwin Drood. I loved it! The idea of a murder-mystery musical where the audience gets to choose the murderer is excellent. I only wish I could have seen all the possible endings! It really makes you wonder if Charles Dickens had lived to finish Edwin Drood, what would have happened.
