Court in the Act  Ref: FFG-CITA
	The Court of St James's Palace, London, in the reign of Queen Elizabeth I. All present have but lately arrived from the Royal premier of Master Shakespeare's latest rib-tickling comedy, Two Ladies of Venice. Now, the Queen makes merry and entertains her courtiers, guests, would-be husbands and envoys from foreign powers with a sumptuous banquet. But while all prepare to feast and frolic, dark clouds gather, the sound of war-drums is heard in the distance - and that dear old man the Archbishop of Canterbury, who surely had never an enemy in the world, is found brutally murdered. At Court in the Act you will discover the following: Who murdered the Archbishop of Canterbury? Why must Queen Elizabeth never marry? Who wrote Shakespeare's plays? What is the secret of Dr John Dee's magical powers? ...and can England be saved from defeat by the Spanish Armada? Find out in Court in the Act! Court in the Act lasts for about four hours and is suited to an evening. It is often played over a meal -- a finger buffet if possible to allow guests to circulate and talk in private. "I bought this game to play with my Shakespeare class (the students were 12-18) -- it was a very fancy affair. We just did it today. It was AWESOME. Everyone came in costume and had a blast. They were begging me to do it again!" Susan Taylor, California, United States
