Scotland’s leading, multiple award winning, murder mystery company returns with a new show.

Gangsters and Gatsby: a roaring 1920s murder mystery for the roaring 2020s.

Welcome to the home of the Great Gatsby, where some of New York’s most notorious gangsters are gathered. Jimmy Fingers is making a power grab. Frankie the Cowboy has beef with everyone. Hayley MeLone just wants someone to love her. The liquor and the laughs are flowing freely. But when Gatsby himself turns up dead, it’ll be up to you to figure out which of these seedy criminals did the deed!

Watch events unfold in a professionally performed play and then flex your detective skills and have your chance to interrogate each suspect in turn!

Bring a team or come on your own.  Fun, funny, mysterious and a good night for all. YOU interrogate the suspects. YOU piece together the clues. YOU make the accusations. Can YOU catch the killer?
