Created by Master Mystery Productions, The Skeleton Key Award is presented by a show’s director to an individual involved in bringing the production to life.  This individual has shown tremendous work ethic, has dedicated his or herself to the show, and has served beyond the call of duty to bring the mystery to the stage.  Each Skeleton Key is designed by the Founder of Master Mystery Productions to be unique to each production, reflecting the story’s individual themes.  It is the show’s highest honor, and winners are forever honored in future programs and on our website for Master Mystery Productions.
