More murdering in Midsomer next year

More dates and the cast have been announced for the UK tour of a new production of Midsomer Murders: The Killings at Badger’s Drift.

Already scheduled for Chester Storyhouse (November 11-15), and Sheffield Lyceum (November 25-29), the production is now touring into 2026, with dates at Blackpool Grand (February 10-14), and Manchester Opera House (May 26-30).

Well-loved spinster Emily Simpson is found dead in the picturesque village of Badger’s Drift, and her friend Lucy Bellringer refuses to accept it was an accident. DCI Tom Barnaby and Sergeant Gavin Troy are called in to investigate, uncovering a world of hidden passions, long-buried secrets and deadly rivalries.

Joining Daniel Casey as Barnaby, the residents of Midsomer will be played by Nathalie Barclay, Chandrika Chevli, John Dougall, Julie Legrand, Rupert Sadler, Chris Agha and Rhîan Crowley-McLean. The actor playing Sergeant Troy is yet to be announced.
