How does a Manchester murder mystery evening work?

Your evening begins during pre-dinner drinks, with our performers mingling and setting the scene. As your meal progresses, the story unfolds — suspects are revealed, scenes are performed, and your guests become detectives. After the main course, it's time to interrogate, theorise and solve the case. The evening concludes with a dramatic dénouement and prizes for the sharpest sleuths at the table. The whole event runs alongside your meal at your chosen Manchester venue, with no separate room or stage required.
