This image depicts a silhouette of a detective or spy character in a noir style. The figure is wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a trench coat, with the left arm raised, holding a gun. The silhouette is black against a solid red background, with the lower part of the figure blending into a stylized city skyline.
The image depicts 5 individuals on stage, all 5 of them are seated on stools with multiple microphones pointed at them. The man on the left seems to be leaning back in shock, the man beside him also appears shocked, touching the shoulder of the woman next to him. The woman beside him is slightly crouching clutching her chest in shock. The two hosts are on the right, one is standing behind a lectern on the stage, and a woman is seating on the stage beside him also holding a microphone.
The image shows 5 people on a darkly lit stage. The central host is man dressed in all black standing behind a lectern with a microphone pointed towards him. There is a woman who is also hosting seated beside him on the floor of the stage holding a microphone. The 3 other people are seated on stools all listening intently.

The Mafia has taken over our town! No one is safe. Civilians are dying every night and we're running out of time. We've recruited seven comedians to help us uncover who the cold-blooded killers are and bring them to justice. Though our problems are only getting worse, the Mafia have infiltrated the investigation, there are moles among us and are silencing our comic detectives one by one.

After a critically acclaimed debut season at last year’s Festival, the Fringe cult hit MAFIA The Game: The Show returns to Melbourne Fringe for a strictly limited run.

Come watch the hit role-playing game come to life in a hilarious live show! Based on the hit role-playing strategy game Mafia, come watch a late night panel show like no other, as we pit comedians against each other in a comedy show filled with as many laughs as there are lies. Split into two teams, the Mafia go head to head with the civilians in an argumentative joust of wits and deceit as the civilians try and bring the mafia to justice - but there's just one catch, the civilians don't know who's on their team and who belongs to the mafia.

Who will survive? Only one way to find out! Come watch the hilarious whodunnit unfold in front of your eyes. Four shows only!

Special relaxed matinee session added for 3.30pm Saturday 12 October.
