Take the Stage in a Storyville Whodunit
2 hours
Game materials, clue sheets
Step into a comic murder mystery set in New Orleans' turn-of-the-century Storyville district. Interact with suspects, follow clues, or relax and watch the story unfold.
Guests can hang out in the jazz bar downstairs until showtime.
Doors open ~10 minutes before the show. Guests come up to the Penthouse.
Then there's a long rolling start, with 15-20 minutes to get drinks, get comfy, and get a small taste of what the hell you got yourself into.
Characters are introduced, and a murder may be discovered!
Guests are called upon to help investigate this tragedy -- and that's where the real fun begins!
After some revelations and investigations, guests are honored for the best performances, and the murderer is revealed!
Free cancellation with at least 24 hours' notice for a full refund.

Show up on-time, and tell the hosts! If you're in a party of 8+, we'll definitely be saving a role or two for you!
No, of course not! BUT once most people who turn down a role say is "Oh I wish I'd known what it was like! I wish I'd done it!" It's mostly casual offstage interactions with other folks in the room.
If their parents are "cool". While there is some sexual humor, it's jokes in the language, not graphic stuff.
