Immersive, at the heart of the plot

You have no lines to learn and no character to play. You're only given a 1920s alias to introduce yourself. Then you watch, wander, and vote.

Murder Party

The party was perfect...

Until the murder!

Champagne keeps flowing. So does the music. Until the silence that changes everything.

A cabaret night. A living thriller.

Song, dance, burlesque, séance: the party is in full swing before the plot turns. Seven actors carry the story before your eyes. You're not backstage. You're in the room, in the middle of the game.

The feast

Feathers, voices, champagne

The ball opens. Characters reveal themselves. The room drinks it in before the crime.

Murder Party

Clues, debate, verdict

You gather what you can. Then the spectators vote, and the actors play the ending.

How the evening unfolds

Most of the time, the whole audience watches together: the major scenes, when the light settles and silence is asked of the spectators. Between these theatre scenes, the château opens up. You can follow a character, overhear a confidence, pick up a clue. Impossible to be everywhere. Every journey is unique.

Show - investigation. In three acts.

01

Discover

Costume, alias, a glass in hand. The château lights up and the characters appear among you.

02

Live it

Cabaret, revelations, then a murder. The major scenes gather the whole room. Between them, the château opens to whoever wants to follow.

03

Vote

At the end, the spectators vote. The actors play the ending according to the verdict. Then optional exchanges with the actors.

The mask at the cloakroom

Every spectator receives a mask (ball mask). At the cloakroom, you choose your distance: Safe or Interactive. Same price, same story, two ways to be in the room.

Safe mask

You observe

Actors do not initiate contact. You move freely, listen, watch. You enter the plot as an observer.

Interactive mask

They may approach you

Actors may briefly come to you. You remain a spectator-investigator: it's not a role to play, just a closer proximity to the plot.
