Murder in the Footlights is a short Pulp Basic Roleplaying adventure suitable for two to four adventurers of normal to heroic experience. Character types that are suitable for the adventure would be Detectives, Reporters, Photographers, wealthy Dilettantes with connections in big city politics, or even a low-powered Pulp Age Super Hero. Other character types can work just as well, but it will be up to the gamemaster to determine how the adventurers get caught up in this caper. The Sanity Rules are used in this adventure, but you can opt to ignore them altogether.
