This year, Western Dubuque High School will be presenting the
musical “Clue.” Performances are Friday and Saturday, April 19 and 20 at 7 p.m.
There is also a Sunday matinee at 4 p.m. “Clue” is being directed by Ms.
Jennifer Maki, a Lawther Academy teacher. When asked why she chose “Clue,” Maki
said, “It’s not done a lot around this area, and I thought it would attract an
audience. There’s a cramped timeline, and I really want to make strong
characters; we don’t really have time for a large chorus, so I want to focus on
the main eight.” The eight characters are Mr. Boddy (Devin Watters, 11),
Professor Plum (Trevor Then, 12), Mr. Green (Marcus Ingles, 11), Colonel
Mustard (Chance Ingles, 12), Mrs. White (Ali Brown, 11), Miss Scarlet (Brooke
Bockenstedt, 10), Detective (Kirsten Anderson, 12) and Mrs. Peacock (Brianna
Kennedy, 12). The musical follows the board game; the audience and Detective
must find out which of the six players killed Mr. Boddy. With its multiple
endings, “Clue” is sure to keep the audience on their toes. For a night of
passion as well as mystery, come play the game, and see if you have what it
takes to find a murderer in Western Dubuque’s showing of “Clue.”
