"A [Drag] House divided against itself cannot stand!" Abraham Lincoln, 1856 (kinda)

Tensions mount during a diva-themed drag show, culminating in a fierce murder! While waiting for the police, the night is swiftly transformed into a whodunnit! Can you figure out who slayed?"

She Slayed: A Drag Murder Mystery is a comedy, murder-mystery theatrical show produced by Nicholas ‘Vic’ Reynolds. The show was created for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2024 and sold out seven performances. 


I designed various digital and print assets, including posters, social media tiles & brochures.

A Mockup | This was a concept for the initial 'casting' posters. The Producer needed the actor to be more prominent in the final version. 

We initially considered using 3D models to build the poster. We decided against it as it too greatly resembled a diorama. 

We bounced around ideas on how to present didactic text. We ultimately agreed on something simpler. 

Above is a Social Media tile advertising the official Instagram Page. The framing device is that the Instagram page is evidence from a crime scene, hinting at the performance's content. 

A Social Media Tile created to advertise the show's sponsors. Note the vanity mirror.

Assets created for the show evoke the productions vaudeville & mystery dressing. These assets do not reference the narrative beyond its aesthetics. 

Backgrounds of various digital assets use a police line-up unifying them with performances hero poster, itself a parody of the The Usual Suspects (1995)
