In the Winding Wheel Theatre Ballroom
An interactive evening of drinks, dinner, dessert, and a little light detective work from the company that brought you A Blinder of a Murder Mystery.
It’s a bygone world of English country murder and you are cordially invited!
The Chesterfield Cricket Club has struggled in recent years and has only taken away a ‘good tea’ from its matches – until the appearance of Tom Bowler, a dynamic ex-professional cricketer turned entrepreneur who has come to settle in the town. The club is hosting its annual gala dinner. All seems to be going well, until Tom Bowler’s murdered body is discovered! Fortunately, the world’s most famous detective ‘Hercule Smith’ is on hand to save the day. Join him as he takes up the case and help him find the killer.
Dress in your finest and grab your thinking cap to help our sleuth unravel the murderous plots.
Whatever twists and turns in the tale, you and your guests are assured the most entertaining evening in the glamorous ballroom.
