Welcome to Shear Madness! The internationally acclaimed, record-breaking comedy where the audience isn’t just watching the show… you’re in it.
Set in the lively and offbeat Shear Madness hair salon, the day begins like any other, full of eccentric clients and colourful banter. But everything turns upside down when the mysterious woman upstairs is found murdered, and suddenly, everyone’s a suspect! Who had the motive? Who had the opportunity? And who’s hiding something in plain sight?
That’s where YOU come in.
Armed with sharp wit and a keen eye for detail, the audience works alongside the characters, following the trail of clues, laughing through the chaos, and questioning suspects live on stage. Every twist, alibi, and outrageous revelation is shaped by the audience’s choices, leading to a different ending every night. It’s an irresistibly clever mix of classic murder mystery, fast-paced improv, and laugh-out-loud comedy that keeps you guessing, and giggling, until the very end.
With over 13.8 million fans around the world, smash-hit productions in over 50 cities, and the title of longest-running play in US history according to the Guinness Book of World Records, Shear Madness is more than just a show…it’s a theatrical phenomenon!
Now, this global comedy sensation arrives in Sonning. Get ready for a night of mystery, mischief, and madcap mayhem like you’ve never experienced before!
