There are Murderous Instincts in all of us!

Enjoy an evening's entertainment of mystery and mayhem set to the seductive sounds of summer salsa.

Edwina, glamorous widow of the late rum tycoon, Bradford Buckingham, is awaiting the return of her children in the wake of their father's death. Summoned with their spouses to the luxurious, palm-lined Buckingham mansion, the couples arrive with quiet trepidation, each desperate to claim their share of the vast estate.

But the family reunion soon collapses into frenzied turmoil with the sudden disappearance of their mother. As the mystery unravels, a string of forbidden secrets, lost dreams, and deeply-rooted fears are exposed in a dynamic whirlwind of lust, obsession, jealousy and greed.

With an irresistible Latin score by Alberto Carrion, this explosive, passionate and hilariously screwball tale of family rivalry bursts on to the stage with a tantalising cocktail of red-hot salsa, soaring voices, infectious beats, and glamorous couture.
