Raleigh Little Theatre: 'Clue' Live Remake

Raleigh Little Theatre is running “Clue (High School Edition)” through Sunday, August 9, at its Gaddy-Goodwin Teaching Theatre in Raleigh, according to the company’s show page. The production adapts the Hasbro board game and the Paramount Pictures film into a stage comedy-mystery built around the guests at Boddy Manor, each using an alias and racing to identify a killer before more bodies appear. Raleigh Little Theatre says the show is presented by its Teens on Stage and Teens Backstage program and directed by Joel Soren. The company lists the runtime at about 90 minutes and says the production includes gunshots, theatrical violence, gore makeup and flashing lights. ### What exactly is Raleigh Little Theatre putting on this weekend? “Clue (High School Edition)” is the teen-production version of the comedy based on the screenplay by Jonathan Lynn and written for the stage by Sandy Rustin, with additional material by Hunter Foster and Eric Price, according to Raleigh Little Theatre. The theater describes it as a “madcap comedy” in which Scarlet, Plum, White, Green, Peacock and Mustard try to solve a murder in Boddy Manor before the body count rises.

Raleigh Little Theatre says “Clue (High School Edition)” is presented by its Teens on Stage and Teens Backstage program, an on-campus summer intensive that combines classes, rehearsals and technical theater training. (raleighlittletheatre.org) In its audition notice, the theater said cast members divide their time between daily classes and rehearsals, while backstage participants rotate through areas including set construction, costuming, lighting, sound and props before moving into run-crew roles. Raleigh Little Theatre’s season announcement placed the show at the start of the organization’s 90th year. The company says its next major production after “Clue” is “Hairspray,” scheduled for August 28 through September 20, 2026, in the Cantey V. Sutton Theatre, while “Clue” continues through August 9 in the Gaddy-Goodwin Teaching Theatre with tickets sold through the theater’s website. (raleighlittletheatre.org) (raleighlittletheatre.org)
