Here’s celebrity sheriff Gaby Roslin in rehearsals for Whodunnit [Unrehearsed] 4, the next instalment of the comedy spectacular now playing at Park Theatre until June 27, 2026.

Roslin is among a number of different celebrities who will each take on the central role of Sheriff, completely unrehearsed. Armed only with an earpiece feeding them lines moments before they speak, each guest must attempt to solve the murder, survive the mayhem and keep the show on track, while the audience watches events spiral in gloriously unpredictable ways.

Making their Whodunnit debuts this year alongside Roslin are Anne-Marie Duff, Toby Jones, Tim McInnerny, Katherine Parkinson, Sara Pascoe, Simon Pegg, Iwan Rheon, Gaby Roslin, Gary Wilmot, Suzi Ruffell and Munya Chawawa. 

They will be joining returning but newly announced Whodunnit alumni Amanda Abbington, Clive Anderson, Gyles Brandreth, Michelle Collins, Nina Conti, Benedict Cumberbatch, Martin Freeman, David Haig, Harry Hill, Adam Hills, Russell Kane, Matt Lucas, Gareth Malone, Gabriel Macht, Tim McInnerny, Ian McKellen, Al Murray, Dermot O’Leary, Tamzin Outhwaite, Clarke Peters, Rob Rinder, Rhashan Stone, Meera Syal, Bradley Walsh, Jodie Whittaker, Olivia Williams, Marcus Brigstocke and Greg Wise.

Previously announced guest sheriffs include Gillian Anderson, Sanjeev Bhaskar, Jim Broadbent, Hugh Bonneville, Adrian Dunbar and Emma Thompson, with Ian McKellen returning to lend his voice to the chaos.

Set in the lawless Wild West town of Graveside, Whodunnit [Unrehearsed] 4 will see Park Theatre transformed into a fully immersive world – taking over the entire building for the first time, from the street outside to the bars, foyers and both auditoria as a new sheriff rides into town, tasked with solving the mystery of the missing gold.

Accompanying the celebrity guest sheriffs in the cast will be Toby Baddeley as Buck Steed, Caroline Deverill as Dawn Frencham, Gabriel Fogarty-Graveson as Jim Ranson, Iona Fraser as Verity Hargreaves, Edward Kaye as James Early, Ian Oakley as Willy the Pianist, Matthew Romain as Rev Virgil, Susanna Wolff as Meg Frencham and ensemble roles to be played by Molly Barton and Killian Macardle.

Whodunnit [Unrehearsed] 4 is a fundraising event for Park Theatre, which receives no regular public subsidy. Proceeds from the production directly support the running of the building, the development of new work, and the theatre’s extensive community and education programmes – helping Park Theatre remain an accessible, creative hub for artists and audiences alike.
