Cocktails and Crime: Nearest and Deadliest

Tickets £28

George V is the King Emperor, and Asquith is the Liberal Prime Minister. Captain Scott is heading to his death at the South Pole, and the White Star Line is about to launch their luxury ship, The Titanic. 

Welcome to the Edwardian period before WWI. 

It is a time of great wealth, the British Empire and aristocrats. But it's also a time of change with workers' strikes, votes for women and Irish home rule all in the news. 

A week ago, local wealthy widow Agatha Sinclair Smythe died in a mysterious house fire in a wealthy district on the outskirts of Nottingham. 

Her nearest and dearest, made up of good friends, close associates and only living relatives, have gathered at the Shire Hall to hear the reading of her will. 

Each one is hoping for a slice of her vast estate, but who will inherit the fortune? A murder mystery is unfolding right before your eyes, and only you can solve it.

Please note this is a repeat theme of the June 2022 and August 2023.
