The guests are encouraged to arrive in period costume. At the venue of your choice they meet in an anteroom or bar area, where actors who introduce themselves in character and distribute Clue Packs greet them. Dinner is announced and the story begins to unfold. The guests find they have been invited to a will reading, engagement party, or whatever fits the chosen storyline. As the plot develops, we introduce wordgames and/or quizzes, which may have hidden clues. By the end of the evening there will have been at least two murders and the guests act as sleuths. Solution sheets are distributed and guests work out who the murderer or murderers are, and as importantly, the motives for the killings. Finally the denouement, and prizes are awarded for the most accurate, ingenious, or simply hilarious, solutions. Ultimately, everyone gets his/her JUST DESSERTS...
