Working on a comedy / thiller stage play here in USA. Wanting various ways (what you think would be scary to be seen on stage in a theatre production - be realistic here - no high tech stuff) to murder characters on stage. List different ways, scenarios to kill off characters.

Professor Plum, in the study, with the lead pipe! "-)

The guy below who mentioned suffocation with the plastic bag reminded me of the show 24. Jack was suffocating his brother with a plastic bag. Then he was torturing him by injecting him through an IV with something that causes pain, so I was thinking you could do something similar. Someone sneaks into a hospital and injects a patient causing an overdose or something like that. Wouldn't take much special effects for that.

Suffocation would work really well. You could have the murderer put a plastic bag over the victim's head, then hold him down as he trashes. The relative quiet of this violent act... the thrashing.. the long silence at the end... - all would work effectively in a play format.

poison - always a classic and fun to act out as well! Failing that a good whack over the head with a blunt object would be fun!

Chisel hammered in to spine, just below the base of the skull, brutal and terrifying.

Poison, drop a heavy object on them, chop them with an axe, stealthily slit their throat. strangle them with their own shirt or nylons, drive a stake directly through one of their eyes, hang them with an extension chord, push them into a hole, stab them with a big rusty nail
