Great Gatsby Murder Mystery Night
July 17
Set backstage on the opening night of a dazzling Gatsby musical, the champagne is flowing, the egos are enormous, and the acting… well… that’s up for debate 🎭. But when the show’s arrogant leading man suddenly dies on stage, the evening takes a very unexpected turn. Returning as a sarcastic ghost narrator, he enlists the audience’s help to solve his own murder 👻🕵️♂️.
With secrets, rivalries, and suspicious characters lurking behind the curtain, it’s up to you to piece together the clues and uncover the killer.
Performed by professional performers from the Billericay Theatre Company, this interactive show brings comedy, drama, and plenty of theatrical chaos to the stage.
Meet the suspects:
⭐ Oliver Sterling – The arrogant leading man whose dramatic death launches the mystery… and who returns as a ghost to guide the investigation.
🎬 Nigel Davenport – An over-the-top theatre director who takes his art far too seriously.
💄 Lola Fontaine – A glamorous leading lady who has spent years in theatre and knows everyone’s secrets.
🌟 Penny Bloom – The sweet but suspicious understudy desperate for her moment in the spotlight.
Expect plenty of laughs, audience interaction, and theatrical chaos in this interactive murder mystery experience, running for approximately 60 minutes with short breaks and even a musical moment along the way 🎶.
Once the mystery is solved, keep the party going with a disco in the theatre until midnight 🕺✨
