Amy Burton Smith

Amy has been working in the arts and entertainment industry for over twenty-five years and has been creating murder mystery experiences for guests for over six years. She is a professional performer with TV and film credits such as Sandylands, Cobra, The Spanish Princess and much more. Her theatre work has been vast and varied, with pantomime being her all-time favourite genre (she's always a villain!) She is also a producer and director and enjoys bringing exciting theatrical events to her home town. On top of this, she is a fire breather and an aerialist and likes to swim in a mermaid tail and paint pictures!

If Amy was a biscuit, she would be a ginger nut because she is full of spice, can also be sweet and takes over the whole biscuit tin if not contained securely!

David Warren

David has been working with Red Herring for over 6 years. He previously lived in the USA before moving to Devon. His career has included many different roles in the entertainment industry both on and backstage. You can see him in films, performing alongside actors such as Colin Baker, Julian Sands and Toyah Wilcox. You can also find him on TV including a TV series filmed in Cyprus for an international market. He appears regularly in Red Herring's virtual murder on screens all around the world and is excited to be able to bring the events back to the physical realm in the South West of England.

As a biscuit, David is most like a caramel wafer. He does get stuck sometimes.

Our team was looking for a way to get together for an activity this past year, and we found Red Herring Events. They hosted an interactive murder mystery for our team and it was such a great experience!
