Murder Mystery: Don't Look Back In Anger
Tickets £29 including arrival cocktail/mocktail
Editor Rex Wright has invited you to the launch party of his latest and hottest magazine, You Got Judged! featuring It-Girl Vienna Ritz-Carlton. What better place to hold the party than the Shire Hall, with its former courtrooms to play on the new magazine's name? But the party begins with a shocking discovery... Rex is found dead!
Key suspects include the star girl herself, a rival publisher, a local journalist, and Rex's child. Do you have the wits to take this 1990s whodunnit from glossy cover to guilty?
Play detectives, interview the suspects and find the clues to catch the culprit.
Please scroll down for important information.
Please note, this is a repeat of our Cocktails & Crime event on Valentine's Day 26.
