Presented by Cluedunnit

Join the glitz and glamour of the Silver Screen at this murder mystery dinner experience like no other.

Meet crime writer Jonathon Mapletree and a cast of suspicious characters as you solve the mystery and discover whodunnit!

It is 1937, and the crowds have gathered for this year’s National Academy Awards. Marjorie-Gae Millington, owner of Centurion Films, is here with the hotly tipped 'Love of a Stranger’, directed by rising star Barton Hayes. Max Reedmand of rival company Dream Film Studios will attend to watch the film, which appears to have a storyline strikingly similar to a script stolen from him earlier this year.

The evening looks set to be another showdown between these two companies. It may be simply show business rivalry. It couldn’t be anything else, perhaps more sinister... or could it?

Enjoy a delicious three-course dinner as you question the suspects, decipher the clues and work to crack the case!

You are invited to dress in the style of the period as you work together to solve the mystery.
