7pm - 10pm - The Murder Mystery Evening

​

Your evening begins with intrigue as our professional actor(s) bring a tailor-made murder mystery to life - the perfect way to get colleagues mixing, laughing and bonding outside the usual office setting. Two hosts will lead the evening for groups of 16+ guests, while your team receive character roles and scripts in advance so everyone can join the action.

​

The story unfolds between each course that your chef prepares, with plenty of clever twists, playful humour (you can choose between Adult or PG levels of humour depending on your office crowd!), and moments that will have the whole team talking well into the new year.

Prepare for an ingenious plotline filled with twists, turns, and plenty of laughs. Your colleagues will become part of the story, embodying their characters as they unravel the mystery.

A talented private chef will prepare a fully bespoke festive menu. Choose two starters, two mains (plus a vegetarian or vegan option if required), and two desserts to suit your team's tastes. Everything is included - chef hire, all ingredients, and full clean-up - so you can simply relax and enjoy the party alongside everyone else.
