The Missing Cue

Chloe, Amara and Ines were at the dress rehearsal of the school play. Each waited in a different place and held one prop.

  1. Amara did not have the torch.
  2. Amara was in the dressing room.
  3. Chloe was not in the lighting box.
  4. The paper fan was not in the lighting box.
  5. Amara did not have the paper fan.

The curtain went up late because someone in the front row was busy with the paper fan and missed the cue. Who was in the front row with the paper fan?

Each person was in one place with one thing, all different. Mark a dot for yes and a cross for no in the grid until only one answer fits.
