A new stage adaptation of one of Pratchett's best-selling novels
There's been a murder. Allegedly. William de Worde is the Discworld's first investigative journalist. He didn't mean to be - it was just an accident. But, as William fills his pages with reports of local club meetings and pictures of humorously shaped vegetables, dark forces high up in Ankh-Morpork's society are plotting to overthrow te city's ruler, Lord Vetinari."One of the funniest authors alive" The Independent

His novels have been widely adapted for stage and screen, and he was the winner of multiple prizes, including the Carnegie Medal.
