Who Dunnit?

 

What a blast!



 On Wednesday October 28, Igniters and WAAMtastic Toastmasters clubs partnered to solve a murder mystery. The  murder happened at Blackwood Manor. Three of us had signed up for speaking roles, Nandini, Marvin and Emma. We dressed the parts. Marvin was Inspector Sherlock Bones, Nandini as Psychic Morgana Le Fey, and Emma as Butler Jeeves. We spent an hour listening to speeches, answering table topics from witnesses in character such as Groundskeeper Gavin, The Housekeeper Agnes Plumb, Sister Agatha, and the nosy neighbour Felicity Pruett. It was intriguing and fun  solving this murder mystery. What a creative way to practice our communication skills. Big thanks to Tina for organizing such a fun way to participate in Toastmasters. I would definitely do this again!


Well, who dunnit? I was happy that I could solve the murder. I won’t spoil the outcome in case you ever attempt to solve this murder mystery yourself.

We may not be solving murders at our next meeting but we will be laughing and learning! Come join us in person on Tuesday Nov 3, 7-8:30pm at 3512 5 Ave NW (Parkdale community association; Nifty Fifties. We have 2 speeches scheduled so far (Trevor and Emma).
