Details

The Academy of Death is a dark tale of the dealings of the revered Dr Knox in providing bodies for medical research. An idealistic new doctor (Alfred Fettes) stumbles upon the dark secret of where and how the bodies are being supplied, getting drawn into the shady world of body-snatching to fund a very expensive diamond ring with which he intends to propose to the beautiful Isabella Knox (daughter of the great doctor himself). Unknown to Fettes, his mentor (Dr 'Toddy' Macfarlane) has already secured the affections of the beauty for himself. Find out how despair drives Fettes to commit unspeakably brutal acts in his quest for more money and how, in his deranged state, he murders the one person who loves him! With a strong story, talented cast and powerful, fresh music, The Academy of Death promises an evening of gripping suspense and high drama! In complete contrast to last year’s dazzling Copacabana, Fledgling Productions return with a dramatic, original musical composed by local musician Geoff Page. Some scenes may not be suitable for children under the age of 10.
