Guildford Shakespeare Company are celebrating their twentieth anniversary year with an immersive murder mystery set inside a real working brewery. A Brew To A Kill takes over the entirety of Hogs Back Brewery in Tongham, Surrey this autumn.
It is the 1950s. The Gloucester family are relaunching their struggling brewery. There is a rival. There is a gangster. And just before the ribbon is cut on the refurbished Tap Room, there is a body. The audience does not watch. They move through the Hop Hanger, the Brew House, the Dutch Barn and a fourth undisclosed location, interrogating suspects, hunting for clues and deciding who to trust. Written by Eli Murton, who also wrote GSC’s previous murder mysteries, and is directed by GSC co-founder Matt Pinches. The previous productions sold out. This one looks set to do the same.
Running: 24th October to 15th November 2026 (33 performances)
Venue: Hogs Back Brewery, Manor Farm, The Street, Tongham, Farnham GU10 1DE
