Welcome to Elihu Entertainment! |
|
Elihu Entertainment, formed by Hugh and Elizabeth Elwood, showcases the magical puppet musicals created by the couple’s company, Elwoodettes Marionettes, along with mystery stories and theatrical play scripts written by Elizabeth Elwood.
Elizabeth has published four books of mystery stories that have gained comparisons to Agatha Christie, Dorothy Sayers, Ellery Queen, and even Rumpole of the Bailey. The last of these, The Agatha Principle and Other Mystery Stories has just been released and a fifth book is in the works. Her plays, Renovations and Casting for Murder , have been produced with great success by several companies across Canada. A third play, Shadow of Murder , had its world premiere at the Bernie Legge Theatre in New Westminster in June, 2011 and played to sellout crowds. The scripts are available and are ideal for groups looking for light comedies or murder mysteries, and the books can be purchased through local stores, or through iUniverse, Amazon or Barnes and Noble on line. Additional theatrical scripts will be available in the near future.
The marionette company has a variety of shows that are available for private bookings. A full list of shows is available on this site.

The Agatha Principle
and Other Mystery Stories The least likely person is the killer,
and no one is really who they seem.”
So Jordan Hope tells his cast as they
prepare to rehearse a production of
Agatha Christie’s The Mousetrap,
but unbeknown to him, a murder
has occurred that night in the snowy
streets of Gastown, and soon,
everyone involved in the show will
become embroiled in a real-life plot
where the unexpected twists and
turns will emulate every trick and
contrivance of the play itself. |
