Oh help, our Munch is missing!


World-famous artwork Edvard Munch's The Scream has gone missing from Oslo National Museum. Agents Kahlo and Dali of the Company of International Artists are putting a team together to crack the case. And there's room in their creative crew for you.


Help them chase leads, decipher clues and interrogate suspects to retrieve the missing artwork in this highly interactive globe-trotting adventure, where the agents in the audience control the story. Who should we interview? Where should we go? That's up to you!


Full of mystery, nods to film noir and a broad streak of quirky comedy, 'The Munch Mission' is a playable family theatre show from award-winning theatre company Brave Bold Drama. Playable means you call the shots about how the story unfolds!


Devised by the company. Directed by Evan Lordan.

Sound design by Gill Simmons. Produced by Paul Lawless.
